SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

## What problem does it solve? Coordinate debugging across multiple services to trace distributed issues and reduce mean time to resolution.

## Core Features & Use Cases

  • Correlate logs by request IDs and trace context across services.
  • Isolate the failing hop and propose targeted fixes.
  • Produce a cross-service trace summary and recommended next steps.

### Quick Start Provide the request IDs, trace context, and the list of services to debug to generate a cross-service trace report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I trace requests across microservices to isolate a failing hop?

Trace requests across microservices by correlating logs with trace context and request IDs to isolate the failing hop. This coordinates distributed debugging by mapping services to owners and producing a guided cross-service remediation plan.

What is cross-service debugging for distributed systems?

Cross-service debugging for distributed systems coordinates tracing across microservices to reduce mean time to resolution. It correlates logs by request IDs and trace context to isolate failing hops and propose targeted fixes.

How do I correlate logs by request IDs across multiple services?

Correlate logs by request IDs across multiple services by gathering the trace context for the distributed issue. This maps services to owners and produces a cross-service trace summary with recommended next steps.

What do I need to start cross-service debugging for microservices?

To start cross-service debugging for microservices, provide the request IDs, trace context, and the list of services to debug. These inputs generate a cross-service trace report that isolates the failing hop and proposes targeted fixes.

When do I need trace context for debugging distributed systems?

Trace context is needed for debugging distributed systems when a failure spans multiple microservices and you must correlate logs to isolate the failing hop. It enables cross-service tracing to produce a guided remediation plan.

Can I map services to owners during cross-service tracing?

Yes, you can map services to owners during cross-service tracing as part of generating a guided remediation plan. This coordinates debugging across distributed systems by isolating the failing hop and proposing targeted fixes.
