Trace-Profiling: A New Way to Track Application Behavior
Explore a novel approach to tracking application behavior through trace-profiling in this informative conference talk. Delve into the limitations of traditional continuous profiling methods that primarily focus on CPU events, and discover how incorporating Off-CPU events such as network and storage can provide a more comprehensive understanding of application performance. Learn how combining traces and profiling at the thread level enables swift identification of application behavior for specific URLs, overcoming the challenges of process-level profiling. Gain insights into leveraging eBPF capabilities for efficient root-cause analysis and issue resolution, ultimately enhancing observability platforms and improving application performance tracking.
