    How to approach this question

    Identify the GCP observability tools specifically designed for application performance monitoring (APM).

    Full Answer

    To debug performance in a distributed microservices architecture, you need APM tools. Cloud Trace provides a waterfall view of a request's journey across services, pinpointing network or database latency. Cloud Profiler looks inside the application code to identify functions that are consuming too much CPU or memory.

    Common mistakes

    Selecting network-level tools like VPC Flow Logs (D) to debug application-level latency.
