Database Performance at Scale#

Database performance is one of the most common scaling bottlenecks for modern web applications. Standard APM tools notify you when your database cluster is slow, but they fail to connect query explain plans directly to individual application execution files. TraceMole was built to solve this problem.

How TraceMole Telemetry Works#

TraceMole wraps your database client drivers (such as MongoDB) using standard, lightweight OpenTelemetry hooks. It intercepts outgoing queries, audits their execution paths asynchronously if they exceed latency boundaries, and registers index recommendations automatically.

Our Philosophy: Transparent Observability#

Observability agents should be transparent and auditable. That's why TraceMole SDK wrappers are 100% open-source, ensuring no sensitive collection payloads or user data records ever leave your private clusters.
