Splunk APM Troubleshooting MetricSets Delayed

Incident Report for Splunk Observability Cloud US3

Resolved

From 5:50pm to 6:08pm PT, degradation in the performance of the Splunk APM trace processing pipeline was causing Troubleshooting MetricSets to be delayed by more than five minutes. As a result, the APM Troubleshooting experience, service maps and Tag Spotlight do not have access to the most recent data.

The processing of metrics for Business Workflows, which also depends on this pipeline, are equally delayed. Trace data ingest is not impacted at this time; service-level and endpoint-level Monitoring MetricSets and the detectors built from them are also not impacted.
