Explore Traces
Note
Explore Traces is currently in public preview. Grafana Labs offers limited support, and breaking changes might occur prior to the feature being made generally available.
Distributed traces provide a way to monitor applications by tracking requests across services. Traces record the details of a request to help understand why an issue is or was happening.
Explore Traces helps you visualize insights from your Tempo traces data. Using the app, you can:
- Use Rate, Errors, and Duration (RED) metrics derived from traces to investigate issues
- Uncover related issues and monitor changes over time
- Browse automatic visualizations of your data based on its characteristics
- Do all of this without writing TraceQL queries
