Mainly, I like Splunk APM because it will show the errors compared to other tools. We use the dashboards to monitor our applications. It will tell us the errors, and we can solve them quickly. I have used APM but haven’t used Trace Analyzer, though I have some knowledge of it. We are able to implement it. We have some Trace Log Points in Splunk APM to catch the errors. We have a special graph for it where we can see the red points. We use OpenTelemetry. OpenTelemetry and Splunk APM are similar in terms of observability and monitoring. We use it for observability standardization, which allows us to collect traces and metrics, making it easier to work with different monitoring tools, including Splunk APM. It is more flexible because it allows us to instrument our applications without being locked into a specific monitoring vendor. It supports collecting traces, metrics, and logs from our applications, providing a comprehensive view of our performance and health endpoints. This data can be fed into Splunk APM, giving us in-depth analysis and insights about our application.
