Traces Drilldown
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.
Grafana Traces Drilldown 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
