AWS Summit Series 2017: London - Deep Dive: AWS X-Ray

When you’re running a large, multi-faceted serverless application with AWS Lambda, how can you effectively diagnose issues in your application’s performance? In this session, we’ll show you how to peek under the hood of your function executions so you can determine where performance issues are occurring in your serverless application. We’ll demonstrate a live demo of a new service, AWS X-Ray, which is a distributed tracing service that helps developers analyze and debug distributed applications. We’ll show you how you can use X-Ray to diagnose your serverless applications using dynamic stack tracing, call analysis, and the X-Ray service graph which visually depicts service calls made to your application.
