Trace every Java web transaction from request to response

Get full visibility into every transaction—from the moment a request enters your servlet until it completes a database call or hits an external API. Site24x7 APM Insight provides full-stack tracing that works seamlessly across applications, traditional J2EE applications, and everything in between.

  • Trace the HTTP request life cycle through servlets, controllers, and business logic.
  • Monitor distributed transaction flows across services.
  • Detect method-level performance bottlenecks in Java code.
  • Track third-party API calls and response delays.
Flow of an HTTP request through Java servlets, application controllers, and database interactions.

Identify and fix slow transactions in real time

Latency isn't always obvious—until users complain. APM Insight detects slow transactions in real time, pinpointing exactly which methods, classes, external service, or downstream database calls are slowing things down. Dive deep into code traces and fix issues faster.

  • Real-time performance alerts for slow web transactions.
  • Detailed breakdown of method execution time.
  • End-to-end distributed tracing in complex J2EE and Jakarta EE stacks.
  • Code path tracing within servlets and controllers.
  • Integration with log data and error traces for faster RCA.

Optimize database performance within the transaction context

Don't let SQL latency silently degrade Java application performance. Site24x7 tracks every Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) interaction within your transactions, helping you isolate database query inefficiencies or any common SQL anti-patterns without any additional instrumentation.

  • JDBC query performance tracking.
  • Auto-capture of slow and failed SQL queries.
  • Query execution time embedded in the full web transaction flow.
  • Support for major databases: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQL Server, and more.
  • Correlate query latency with user experience impact, including its effects on Apdex score.

Unified monitoring across frameworks, servers, and JVMs

Whether you’re running Spring, Struts, or legacy J2EE systems, Site24x7 APM Insight ensures complete observability. Monitor servlet containers, JSPs, EJBs, and backend APIs in one unified platform—perfect for hybrid enterprise environments.

  • Monitor Java applications across Tomcat, JBoss, WebLogic, WebSphere, and Oracle servers.
  • Support for most common Java virtual machines (JVMs) like OpenJDK, HotSpot, IBM J9, and more.
  • Thread profiling and memory diagnostics for slow transactions or resource leaks.
  • Visibility into both legacy (J2EE, JSP, EJB) and modern (Spring Boot, Jakarta EE) stacks.
  • Multi-host and multi-environment support (bare metal, VMs, Docker, Kubernetes).

Monitor external dependencies and web services

Slow third-party APIs can drag down your entire application. Site24x7 captures outbound API calls and web service interactions within transaction traces, so you know exactly what’s slowing down your Java application.

  • Measure API response times and errors from within Java transactions.
  • Detect slow or failing external service calls.
  • Analyze third-party dependency impact in performance traces.
  • Correlate external calls with frontend and backend latency.

Java web transaction monitoring FAQ

1. What is Java web transaction monitoring?

Java web transaction monitoring refers to tracking the flow of HTTP requests through various layers of a Java application—such as servlets, controllers, services, and databases—to identify bottlenecks and performance issues.

Tracing helps pinpoint slow methods, long-running SQL queries, or third-party API delays. It helps developers reduce MTTR and improve user experience.

Absolutely. External API calls are captured within transaction traces, including response time, status codes, and errors.

Yes. Site24x7 provides distributed tracing across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments, including Docker and Kubernetes deployments.

Yes. Site24x7 APM Insight can trace asynchronous transactions and non-blocking patterns in supported frameworks.
