This is exactly what i am looking for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGMacfyuA9w
I explored and found that there are lots of open source APM tools like Pinpoint, Apache Skywalking, elastic APM, Stagemonitor, Glowroot, Javamelody, Scouter etc.
I found elastic APM to be best of all. Interestingly it was introduced in first quarter of last year with collaboration of an opensource company called opbeat.

I think Zabbix should also include APM feature in their Roadmap. Maybe It can developed as a separate component like elastic did.
It is included on the Roadmap for Zabbix 6.4 
Current informatin from the roadmap:
- Extend Zabbix to enable APM functionality and tracing
- Bindings for various programming languages (Java, Python, PHP, etc)
- New set of widgets aimed to APM visualization
With APM monitoring on the roadmap for 6.4, I know that the Zabbix team is probably still some time away from the actual full on planning stage for this feature. Even though, some questions about the plan come to mind already, as this would be a big feature addition for Zabbix.
Good to see tracing is in the plan and great to see Zabbix is thinking about including bindings for the most used programming languages, but going a bit more into detail the questions I am left with some questions:
- How is Zabbix planning to support APM monitoring, is the plan to create a completely proprietary solution?
- In line with question 1. Have open standards been considered to possibly improve the speed and ease of adoption for users when this is implemented? Standards like Opentelemetry are becoming more and more common and might enable Zabbix to do more in a short time period: https://opentelemetry.io/
With other APM monitoring tools like Datadog also including standards like Opentelemetry, is this a path that has been discussed/considered?
Sources: https://docs.datadoghq.com/tracing/setup_overview/open_standards/ and https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/extend-dynatrace/opentelemetry - I can see that tracing is on the list, but are there any plans to include 'distributed tracing' specifically? With serverless and microservices becoming the standard more each day, is this something Zabbix is considering to implement to improve the visability in distributed environments?
https://lightstep.com/distributed-tracing - Would be great to see some details regarding the plan/design steps Zabbix is taking. Taking into account that Zabbix 6.4 is introducing APM monitoring for the first time, would be interesting to see if a basic (extendable) implementation is done at first or if we can expect a full blown APM monitoring implementation from the start.
Really looking forward to this feature! Thanks.
Now, It's included on the Roadmap for Zabbix 7.2
its again not visible.... do not know when will it come
Any Update about this issue?
APM initiative has extensive scope. It is split into multiple steps. First step is to support Open telemetry (OT). For OT there are few tasks which are being developed:
and few more tasks coming: OT ingestion, trace breakdown widget, etc.
