Which two functions does the Trace Explorer allow you to do in Application Performance Monitoring (APM)? (Choose two.)

The Trace Explorer in OCI Application Performance Monitoring (APM) is a tool for analyzing

distributed traces and spans. Its key functions include:

View the details of specific spans (A): Trace Explorer allows users to drill into individual spans within

a trace, displaying details such as duration, status, tags, logs, and errors. This helps identify

performance bottlenecks or failures in specific service calls.

Select pre-defined queries for common use cases (B): It provides built-in queries (e.g., slowest traces,

error traces, traces by service) to quickly filter and analyze common scenarios, enhancing

troubleshooting efficiency.

Why not C or D?

Display status of monitored systems (C): System status is monitored via OCI Monitoring or Stack

Monitoring, not Trace Explorer, which focuses on traces.

Define custom metrics for traces (D): Custom metrics are defined in OCI Monitoring, not Trace

Explorer, which is for viewing, not creating metrics.

Trace Explorer enhances visibility into distributed application performance.
