Abstract: The present technology may determine an anomaly in a portion of a distributed business application. Data can automatically be captured and analyzed for the portion of the application associated with the anomaly. By automatically capturing data for just the portion associated with the anomaly, the present technology reduces the resource and time requirements associated with other code-based solutions for monitoring transactions. A method for performing a diagnostic session for a request may begin with initiating collection of diagnostic data associated with a request. An application thread on each of two or more servers may be sampled. The application threads may be associated with the same business transaction and the business transaction may be associated with the request. The diagnostic data may be stored.

Data can automatically be captured and analyzed for the portion of the application associated with the anomaly. By automatically capturing data for just the portion associated with the anomaly, the present technology reduces the resource and time requirements associated with other code-based solutions for monitoring transactions. A method for sampling an application thread to monitor a request may begin with detecting a diagnostic event with respect to the processing of a request. A thread call stack associated with the request may be sampled in response to detecting the diagnostic event. A state of the call stack may be stored with timing information based on the sampling. The call stack state and timing information may be transmitted to a remote server.

Abstract: The present technology may determine an anomaly in a portion of a distributed business application. Data can automatically be captured and analyzed for the portion of the application associated with the anomaly. By automatically capturing data for just the portion associated with the anomaly, the present technology reduces the resource and time requirements associated with other code-based solutions for monitoring transactions. In an embodiment, a method for monitoring an application may begin with detecting a diagnostic event. A diagnostic identifier may be associated with the request in response to the diagnostic event. An outgoing call may be detected at a first server associated with processing the request. The outgoing call may be modified at the first server to include the diagnostic identifier, the outgoing call with the diagnostic identifier received by a remote computer.

Abstract: The present technology monitors a web application provided by one or more services. A service may be provided by applications. The monitoring system provides end-to-end business transaction visibility, identifies performance issues quickly and has dynamical scaling capability across monitored systems including cloud systems, virtual systems and physical infrastructures. In instances, a request may be received from a remote application. The request may be associated with a distributed transaction. Data associated with the request may be detected. A distributed transaction identifier may be generated for a distributed transaction based on the data associated with the request.

Abstract: The present technology monitors a web application provided by one or more services. A service may be provided by applications. The monitoring system provides end-to-end business transaction visibility, identifies performance issues quickly and has dynamical scaling capability across monitored systems including cloud systems, virtual systems and physical infrastructures. A first parameter may be received from a first computer by a server. A second parameter may be received from a second computer by the server. A distributed application processed on the first computer and the second computer may be correlated based on the first parameter and the second parameter.

Abstract: The present technology monitors a web application provided by one or more services. A service may be provided by applications. The monitoring system provides end-to-end business transaction visibility, identifies performance issues quickly and has dynamical scaling capability across monitored systems including cloud systems, virtual systems and physical infrastructures. A message may be placed in an asynchronous queue. The message may be associated with a business transaction. The message in the asynchronous queue may be retrieved by an application. Business transaction information associated with the message may be transmitted to a server by the application.
