Pinpoint - Application Performance Management tool for large-scale distributed systems in Java

Pinpoint is an APM (Application Performance Management) tool for large-scale distributed systems written in Java. Modelled after Dapper, Pinpoint provides a solution to help analyze the overall structure of the system and how components within them are interconnected by tracing transactions across distributed applications.

Services nowadays often consist of many different components, communicating amongst themselves as well as making API calls to external services. How each and every transaction gets executed is often left as a blackbox. Pinpoint traces transaction flows between these components and provides a clear view to identify problem areas and potential bottlenecks.
