| # Abstract |
| **SkyWalking** is an open source APM system, including monitoring, tracing, diagnosing capabilities for distributed system |
| in Cloud Native architecture. |
| |
| * Distributed Tracing |
| * End-to-end distributed tracing. Service topology analysis, service-centric observability and APIs dashboards. |
| * Agents for your stack |
| * Java, .Net Core, PHP, NodeJS, Golang, LUA, Rust, C++, Client JavaScript and Python agents with active development and maintenance. |
| * eBPF early adoption |
| * Rover agent works as metrics collector and profiler powered by eBPF to diagnose CPU and network performance. |
| * Scaling |
| * 100+ billion telemetry data could be collected and analyzed from one SkyWalking cluster. |
| * Mature Telemetry Ecosystems Supported |
| * Metrics, Traces, and Logs from mature ecosystems are supported, e.g. Zipkin, OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Zabbix, Fluentd |
| * Native APM Database |
| * BanyanDB, an observability database, created in 2022, aims to ingest, analyze and store telemetry/observability data. |
| * Consistent Metrics Aggregation |
| * SkyWalking native meter format and widely known metrics format(OpenCensus, OTLP, Telegraf, Zabbix, e.g.) are processed through the same script pipeline. |
| * Log Management Pipeline |
| * Support log formatting, extract metrics, various sampling policies through script pipeline in high performance. |
| * Alerting and Telemetry Pipelines |
| * Support service-centric, deployment-centric, API-centric alarm rule setting. Support forwarding alarms and all telemetry data to 3rd party. |
