## Datadog APM - Java Agent and Core Tracer
|
|
|
|
Datadog APM gives you powerful tools to observe and optimize modern applications.
|
|
It enables you to see exactly where your requests go and which services or calls are contributing to overall latency.
|
|
The lightweight agent is designed to be deployed on every host in your infrastructure,
|
|
so it generates gap-free distributed request traces even in the most complex microservice architectures.
|
|
|
|
This repository offers you all resources you needed to start to instrument your project and
|
|
gather all traces in your [Datadog](https://app.datadoghq.com) account.
