    Abstract: A system processes data stream language expressions that combine result data streams from multiple data stream language sub-expressions. The system determines a set of fixed dimensions based on static analysis of the data stream language sub-expression. The system determines a union set representing a union of the sets of fixed dimensions. The system determines at execution time of the data stream language expression, a plurality of sets of data streams. Each set of data stream corresponds to a data stream language sub-expression from the plurality of data stream language expressions. The system correlates data streams across the plurality of sets of data streams based on the union set. The system determines result data streams for the data stream language expression by combining data values of correlated data streams.

    Abstract: A method of generating metrics data associated with a microservices-based application comprises ingesting a plurality of spans and mapping an ingested span of the plurality of spans to a span identity, wherein the span identity comprises a tuple of information identifying a type of span associated with the span identity, wherein the tuple of information comprises user-configured dimensions. The method further comprises grouping the ingested span by the span identity, wherein the ingested span is grouped with other spans from the plurality of spans comprising a same span identity. The method also comprises computing metrics associated with the span identity and using the metrics to generate a stream of metric data associated with the span identity.

    Abstract: According to embodiments, a method for virtual partitioning of data includes receiving a data stream comprising a plurality of traces, each trace comprising a plurality of spans from a plurality of users. The method also includes assigning the plurality of traces of the data stream to a plurality of virtual partitions based on each user of the plurality of users, each virtual partition of the plurality of virtual partitions comprising data of a user of the plurality of users. The method also includes scheduling at least a subset of the plurality of virtual partitions to at least one user partition of a shared topic, the at least one user partition comprising data from at least one virtual partition of at least one user of the plurality of users. The method also includes indexing each user partition of the shared topic based on each user and each virtual partition.

    Abstract: A method of rendering a graphical user interface (GUI) comprising an application topology graph for a microservice architecture comprises generating a plurality of traces from a first plurality of spans generated by instrumented services in the architecture and generating generate a second plurality of spans for uninstrumented services using information extracted from the first plurality of spans. The method further comprises grouping the second plurality of spans with the plurality of traces. Subsequently, the method comprises traversing the traces and collecting a plurality of span pairs from the plurality of traces, wherein each pair of the span pairs is associated with a call between two services. The method also comprises aggregating information across the plurality of span pairs to reduce duplicative information associated with multiple occurrences of a same span pair from the plurality of span pairs. Finally, the method comprises rendering the application topology graph using the aggregated information.
