Application topology

Updated at:

In microservice architectures, understanding how services depend on each other helps you diagnose failures and optimize performance. After you report application data to Managed Service for OpenTelemetry, the Topology tab displays the topological relationships among your application's internal services, so you can identify upstream and downstream dependencies.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that you have:
