AWS Step Functions provides a workflow orchestration service that coordinates activity from hundreds of services to build and manage serverless workflows. To fully understand the performance of your Step Functions workflow, you need to see all its states, their relationship, and data describing their performance. Datadog's State Machine Map offers a high-level visualization of your Step Functions workflow along with execution details from each state, including logs, errors, and latency metrics. The map provides valuable context and actionable data for each Step Functions execution, helping you monitor performance and troubleshoot issues such as branch logic and state machine failures. By visualizing your workflows, understanding branches, and drilling down into monitoring data, you can quickly identify and debug problems in your Step Functions workflow.
