Abstract

Technology for monitoring transactions in a computing environment is disclosed. Execution of a transaction by a first application is monitored by a first software entity executing on a first computing device. Performance data that relates to execution of the transaction by a first application is generated. Execution of the transaction by a second application is monitored by a second software entity. The transaction is executed by the second application based on a request from the first application. A determination is made, based on the monitoring, that the first software entity should report the performance data to a third software entity that executes on a second computing device. Based on determining that the first software entity should report the performance data, data is propagated that indicates that the first software entity should report the performance data. The first software entity reports the performance data to the third software entity.
