Distributed Tracing with Honeycomb gives you answers fast.
Monitoring is great but-- it's good for "generally what's happening in prod" vs why. You need observability when things go awry. Tracing views show you why latencies and errors occur across your services. The best way to get there is to instrument your code. You get the most bang for your buck knowing how your app or service should behave. Honeycomb gets your telemetry started with packages (aka Beelines) for Python, Javascript, Ruby, Go and more.
Start asking questions of production. Get swift answers and introspect to find out what's happening with your code through the eyes of your customers. Honeycomb's secret sauce lies in the underlying data. Uniquely pin-pointing down to the raw data helps you get to the source of problems much faster.
