Success Stories: How trace.do Revolutionizes Workflow Management and Debugging

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, businesses are increasingly adopting "Agentic Workflows" and "Business-as-Code" paradigms to automate complex processes and enhance efficiency. However, with this power comes a new challenge: gaining deep visibility into the intricate dance of these automated agents. This is where trace.do steps in, revolutionizing how organizations monitor, trace, and debug their most critical workflows.

The Blind Spots of Traditional Monitoring

Traditional monitoring tools, while effective for infrastructure or basic application performance, often fall short when it comes to understanding the granular interactions within an agentic system. When a multi-step workflow fails, pinpointing the exact cause – whether it's a hiccup in a payment gateway, an inventory issue, or an unexpected data format – becomes a manual, time-consuming, and often frustrating exercise. Without clear insights, debugging turns into a speculative endeavor, impacting business operations and customer satisfaction.

Enter trace.do: Your Eyes and Ears in Agentic Workflows

trace.do is purpose-built to address this very challenge. It provides deep visibility and observability into your Agentic Workflows, transforming opaque processes into transparent, analyzable journeys. Imagine being able to monitor, trace, and analyze every transaction and event as it happens, from initiation to completion, regardless of success or failure.

Trace and Observe Your Agentic Workflows with unparalleled clarity.

At its core, trace.do helps you gain deep visibility into every step of your Business-as-Code processes. It works by capturing detailed, structured event data, giving you a comprehensive narrative of your workflow's execution.

Consider this example of the kind of granular data trace.do captures:

[
  {
    "timestamp": "2023-10-27T10:00:00Z",
    "eventId": "txn_abc123",
    "service": "payment-gateway",
    "operation": "processPayment",
    "status": "success",
    "durationMs": 150,
    "metadata": {
      "userId": "user_xyz789",
      "amount": 50.00,
      "currency": "USD"
    }
  },
  {
    "timestamp": "2023-10-27T10:00:05Z",
    "eventId": "order_def456",
    "service": "order-fulfillment",
    "operation": "createOrder",
    "status": "failed",
    "durationMs": 220,
    "error": "Inventory not available",
    "metadata": {
      "orderId": "order_def456",
      "items": ["itemA", "itemB"]
    }
  }
]

This JSON snippet illustrates how trace.do provides context-rich information for each step. We can see a successful payment transaction followed immediately by a failed order creation due to an "Inventory not available" error. Such detailed insights drastically reduce the time spent on debugging and enable proactive problem-solving.
