Application performance monitoring system for distributed systems, microservices and container-based architectures.
skywalking.apache.org/repositorydocs
Apache SkyWalking is an application performance monitoring system for distributed systems, microservices and container-based architectures. Applications connect through agents for their language, and the OAP server listens for gRPC APIs. Storage is pluggable: the project recommends BanyanDB and also documents MySQL, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch and OpenSearch. A startup script runs the OAP server and the UI together, and the project documents Docker images and a Helm chart for Kubernetes. The server can also receive traces in OpenTelemetry format and convert them to the Zipkin trace format. The project is developed under the Apache Software Foundation.
