Viewing the data in Splunk APM

In the left-hand menu click on APM to see the data generated by the traces from the newly instrumented services. Change the Environment filter (1) to the name of your workshop instance in the dropdown box. (Note: this will be <INSTANCE>-workshop where INSTANCE is the value from the shell script you ran earlier. Ensure it is the only one selected.)

If you see a Critical Alert, you can ignore it as it is caused by the sudden request increase generated by the load generator (2). Click on the Service Map (3) pane to get ready for the next section.
