== Visualizing Application Bottlenecks
|
|
|
|
Elastic APM monitors transactions and errors in your application. A transaction
|
|
can be a request to your server or a batch job or a custom transaction type.
|
|
You can see information about response times, requests per minute, and status
|
|
codes per endpoint. You can also dive into a specific request sample and get a
|
|
complete waterfall view of what your application is spending its time on. For
|
|
example, you might see that the bottlenecks are in database queries, cache
|
|
calls, or external requests. This information enables you to easily compare and
|
|
debug fast responses to slow responses.

|
//TBD: What are we wanting them to notice in the following screenshot?
|
|
//For example, the APM UI shows that the following transaction is spending over 400 ms querying the orders database?

|
For each incoming request and each application error, you can also see
|
|
contextual information such as the request header, user information, system
|
|
values, or custom data that you manually attached to the request.
|
|
|
|
Having access to application-level insights with just a few clicks can
|
|
drastically decrease the time you spend debugging errors, slow response times,
|
|
and crashes.
