Automatically detect error and latency patterns with Watchdog Insights for APM

This article discusses a new approach to observability by unifying frontend and backend data through "retention filters." These filters allow developers to selectively store and analyze specific data points – like user IDs or error codes – across the entire system, improving correlation and troubleshooting. By focusing retention on critical data, it reduces storage costs and enhances the signal-to-noise ratio for more effective observability.
