Question #: 7
Topic #: 3

In Application Performance Monitoring (APM), a distributed tracing user initiates a request through a browser. What is the first span called?

AAjax call

BTrace ID

CRoot span

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

In distributed tracing within OCI APM:

Root span (C): The first span in a trace, representing the entry point of a user request (e.g., an HTTP request from a browser). It has no parent span and initiates the chain of subsequent spans across services.

Why not A or B?

Ajax call (A): A type of request, not a span term.

Trace ID (B): A unique identifier for the entire trace, not a span.

The root span is foundational to tracing a request's journey.

Root span, got it. Hopefully, it's not the only span that shows up, or else it'll be a pretty lonely trace.

The root span, huh? Sounds like the VIP of the whole tracing party. I bet it gets all the attention.

C) Root span sounds right to me. Wouldn't want to get that mixed up with the trace ID or some random AJAX call.

I agree, the root span is the logical starting point of the trace. It's like the grand entrance to the whole distributed system.

I think it's called the root span because it's where everything branches out from.
