Working with Tracing data

This guide provides information to work with your tracing data including the following:

• Service Map
• Dashboards
• View and investigate Traces
• Analyze data on Span level
• Search Query Language support for Traces

In this section, we will introduce the following concepts:

📄️ Service Map

The Service Map is a high-level view of your application environment, automatically built from tracing data in real time as it arrives in Sumo Logic. This gives you a greater understanding of your application architecture and dependencies between monitored microservices.

📄️ Tracing Dashboards

Application Service Dashboards

📄️ View and investigate Traces

Trace data is visualized through filtered trace lists and icicle charts allowing you to find and troubleshoot faulty transactions easily.

📄️ Analyze data on Span level

📄️ Search Query Language support for Traces

You can use the Search Query Language in a log search to query raw spans from tracing data for the same period as the default partition.
