New Relic's new global search experience for distributed tracing allows customers to easily find traces by using custom attributes that teams often add to spans within a particular service, eliminating the limitations of existing trace search tools and making it easier to tap into this value. This feature enables users to search for traces with specific span attributes without resorting to manual propagation or knowing where attributes originated or with which services they are associated. With global trace search, customers can now find all traces in the system based on customerID attribute, version numbers, error messages, user/customer information, or any other custom attribute, regardless of where in the trace those attributes were added. This feature improves the ability to find traces quickly, easily, and with greater precision, allowing teams to work faster and more efficiently to solve performance issues in distributed software environments.
