Advanced tools
Self-hosted serverless tracing.
Deploy a CloudFormation stack to your own AWS account for instant Lambda tracing. Complete with a self-hosted UI, so you stay in full control of your data, and you only pay for AWS usage related to tracing and storage.
Simply run the command below to deploy the stack:
npx deploy-trace-stack@latest
This command will clone the repo, prompt you with some questions to set configuration options, and then use your current AWS credentials to deploy the stack.
Once you're done, it will display the URL for your new dashboard.
Once installed, all Lambda functions in your AWS account will automatically be traced,
by adding a Lambda layer to them. You'll also notice a new environment variable called AUTO_TRACE_QUEUE_URL
.
If you wish to disable tracing for a specific function, you can add the environment variable AUTO_TRACE_EXCLUDE
with a value of 1
. This will keep the Lambda layer from being added.
Note that it might take up to 20 minutes for the application to detect any newly added Lambda functions and start adding the tracing layer to them.
We're only using the following AWS services:
This combo lets us pay only for our usage. For every invocation of your Lambdas, multiple calls will be made to the service, but these are quick and finish fast.
Ultimately, costs will depend on the overall number of Lambda executions in your AWS account.
