Transaction Search

Focus mode
Transaction Search - AWS X-Ray

Transaction Search is an interactive analytics experience you can use to get complete visibility of your application transaction spans. Spans are the fundamental units of operation in a distributed trace and represent specific actions or tasks in an application or system. Every span records details about a particular segment of the transaction. These details include start and end times, duration, and associated metadata, which can include business attributes like customer IDs and order IDs. Spans are arranged in a parent-child hierarchy. This heirarchy forms a complete trace mapping the flow of a transaction across different components or services.

For more information, see Transaction Search.
