AWS X-Ray introduced the potential to club Traces

AWS X-Ray is a service which gathers data about requests that your application serves, and offers tools you can utilize to vision, filter, and obtain insights into that data to discern problems and solutions for optimization. You can refer complete information not only of the request and response, but also about calls which your application performs to downstream AWS resources, microservices, databases and HTTP web APIs, for any traced request to your application. To trace incoming HTTP requests Interceptors need to add to your code. You can produce a detailed service graph with AWS X-Ray which utilizes trace data from AWS Resources that controls your cloud applications. This service graph is used to see the clients, your front-end and back-end service calls to operate requests and preserve data. Besides, this service graph is also used to view bottlenecks, latency spikes, and other problems to solve to enhance the performance of your applications. You can perceive how your application and its hidden services are executing to recognize and solve the root cause of performance problems and errors with AWS X-Ray.

Now, you can club traces to equal a filter expression. Further, X-Ray will automatically build Amazon CloudWatch metrics for traces which compare a specific club. This enables you to check service graphs and create CloudWatch alarms with the group, improving your potential to perceive faster and solve application problems. You can utilize X-Ray to analyze both applications in development and production, from easy three-tier applications to complicated microservices applications including of thousands of services. X-Ray gives an end-to-end vision of requests as they move across your application, and displays a map of your application’s hidden components. To build a trace group, refer navigate to the “Service Map” in the X-Ray Management console and click the group drop down. For further details on AWS X-Ray refer this Guide
