Data Collection

Scope and Usage

When you enable data collection on Application Performance Management (APM), APM only collects service tracing data, resource information, resource attributes, memory detection information, and call request KPIs, but does not collect any privacy data. The collected data is used only for APM performance analysis and fault diagnosis, and is not used for any commercial purposes.

Data Type	Collected Data	Transmission Mode	Storage Mode	Data Purpose
Tracing data	Tracing span data	HTTPS encryption and Access Key ID/Secret Access Key (AK/SK) authentication for transmission	Project-based isolated storage	Query and display at the tracing frontend
Call request KPIs	Call initiator address, receiver address, API, duration, and status	HTTPS encryption and AK/SK authentication for transmission	Project-based isolated storage	Calculation of transaction call KPI metrics (such as throughput, TP99 latency, average latency, and number of call errors), drawing of application topologies, and display of call metrics and topologies at the frontend.
Resource information	Service type, service name, creation time, deletion time, node address, and service release API	HTTPS encryption and AK/SK authentication for transmission	Project-based isolated storage	Query and display at the resource library frontend
Resource attributes	System type, system startup event, number of CPUs, service executor, service process ID, service pod ID, CPU label, system version, web framework, JVM version, time zone, system name, collector version, and LastMail URL	HTTPS encryption and AK/SK authentication for transmission	Project-based isolated storage	Query and display at the resource library frontend
Memory monitoring information	Memory usage, used memory, maximum memory, remaining memory, memory threshold-crossing time, and memory monitoring configurations	HTTPS encryption and AK/SK authentication for transmission	Project-based isolated storage	Query and display at the resource library frontend
