Full Stack Visibility

Don't just tail logs. Use our built-in observability suite to visualize distributed systems, trace requests, and hunt memory leaks.

🌐 DISTRIBUTED TRACING

Visualize the bottleneck.

Interactive waterfall charts help candidates identify latency in microservices. Is it the DB lock or the external API?

📈 REAL-TIME METRICS

Monitor like it's production.

Candidates see live, simulated metrics streaming in real-time. Just like debugging an actual incident, they analyze CPU spikes, memory leaks, and request latency to diagnose what's breaking.

  • Real-time data updates
  • Industry-standard observability patterns
  • Identify CPU spikes, memory leaks, and latency
