Moesif vs APM
Application Performance Monitoring (APM) tools like New Relic, Datadog, and Lightstep are great for monitoring infrastructure metrics. However, single-value time-series lack context needed for understanding complex user behavioral flows.
Tools like Moesif leverage high-cardinality, high-dimension analytics with a user-centric architecture enabling teams to investigate complex engineering and business problems at superhuman speed. Automate workflows like automatically block API threats or send customers emails when they run into issues driven from your API data.
