No matter where you are in your journey to cloud native, Elastic APM can help you deliver better customer experiences by spotting performance bottlenecks sooner and identifying regressions from new deployments faster. Learn how to get a complete view of the services that power your applications — from frontend to backend — to keep them running smoothly.

1. Elastic APM
Amping up your logs and metrics for the full picture
Mikkel Kidmose
Senior Solutions Architect

2. 2
APM helps organizations monitor their
application layer of the stack by
providing detailed performance insights
that help drive MTTR towards zero
“

3. Application performance
monitoring
Resolve problems faster
•End-to-end app and service
monitoring
•Machine learning & distributed
profiling
•Root cause analysis
•Easy and flexible deployment

4. Application Key Performance Indicators
Bird’s-eye view of all your services

5. Optimize service for the business
• Availability monitoring
• Key performance indicators - latency,
load, errors
• Real users, front-end services,
back-end services, microservices
• Broad language and framework
support
End-to-end app and
service monitoring

6. Service Maps
Dependency map of all your services

7. Machine learning
One-click integrations with machine learning from APM
• Ability to create response time
based ML jobs from APM
‒ Profiles response time to
calculate anomalies
‒ Takes into account
seasonality

8. Intelligent service maps
Machine learning integrated health indicators on maps

9. Machine learning &
distributed profiling
Reduce MTTI / MTTR
• Integrated machine learning /
anomaly detection
• Automatic dependency mapping
• Service map intelligence

10. Distributed Tracing
With support for open standards like OpenTelemetry, OpenTracing, and Jaeger

11. Unified observability
Correlate trace data with logs and metrics data in context

12. Context aware real-time search
Quickly tie data streams together for answers

13. Root cause analysis
in context
Solve problems faster
• Distributed traces for application
debugging
– Open standards support
• Unified observability
– Metrics and logs in context
– Diagnose infrastructure and/or
application problems quickly
• Powerful search to find ‘needles in
the haystack’

How it works & how to find info
• Native libraries for 7 different
languages
‒ Extensive instrumentation
support across the different
ecosystems inclusive of full stack
technologies (front end to the
back end)
• Support for OpenTracing, Jaeger and
OpenTelemetry

22. DevOps collaboration
• Track the performance of
applications with code deploys
• Annotations on all APM charts
available to quickly spot performance
changes post a new deployment
• Search filtering out versions
Tie performance issues to deployments

23. ITSM collaboration
Integrate into existing incident management processes

24. Get started with Elastic APM
1. Deploy Elastic APM Server
2. Install agents and instrument apps
3. Point agent to the server endpoint
4. Happy monitoring!
