Quickstart

Middleware utilizes host agents, simple scripts, application level packages and 3rd party integrations to ingest Telemetry Data from many sources. Our vision is to keep instrumentation as fast as possible so you can spend more time working on your code and less time working on ours.

Once ingested, Middleware connects all relevant datapoints using context which makes exploration simple and intuitive. You'll be able to drill down and across data points, quickly finding root cause of any error, performance bottleneck, or user behavior.

1 Install an Agent

To get started, we recommend installing the Middleware Agent as that is the core to most of the data collection. If you're running a serverless application then you'll skip to installing the APM which can send data directly to Middleware at a cost.

We also support a few 3rd party agents in case you're already using one.

2 Application Instrumentation & other sources

Once the agent is installed, the next step is to collect data via one of our APMs, adding RUM to your front-end, or connecting a 3rd party source.

3 Utilizing your Telemetry Data

As soon as Middleware collects data you'll be able to create alerts and dashboards. Middleware will set some up for you by default as examples, and you'll have full access to every data point ingested for complete customization.
