Summary

Elastic APM 7.2.0 introduces significant updates, including a beta .NET agent for ASP.NET Core and Entity Framework Core, enhanced Java application server support, and additional agent-specific metrics for improved observability and root cause analysis. The release also extends support to new Java application servers like Oracle's WebLogic and IBM's JBoss, as well as network frameworks such as OkHttp and JAX-WS client. Enhancements to the Real User Monitoring (RUM) agent now allow monitoring of Single Page Applications by capturing route change navigations. The update includes index lifecycle management for Elastic APM Server to automate index rollover while maintaining visibility. Users can now filter views based on deployment environments, and related errors are displayed on transaction sample views for easier navigation and error tracking. Elastic APM 7.2.0 is available on the Elasticsearch Service and as part of the Elastic Stack distribution.
