This dashboard provides comprehensive monitoring of Application Performance Monitoring (APM) metrics, offering detailed visibility into latency percentiles, request rates, error percentages, and external API calls across your applications and services.
📝 Note
To use this dashboard, you need to set up the opentelemetry instrumentation and send traces to SigNoz. Follow the Instrumentation guide to get started.

What This Dashboard Monitors
This dashboard tracks essential application performance metrics to help you:
- Monitor Application Latency: Track response times across different percentiles (p50, p90, p99)
- Request Rate Analysis: Monitor incoming request volumes and traffic patterns
- Error Rate Tracking: Identify and track application errors and failure rates
- Operation Performance: Analyze performance of specific API endpoints and operations
- External API Monitoring: Track external service calls, error rates, and response times
- Database Performance: Monitor database call rates and average duration
Metrics Included
Overview Section
Latency Metrics
- Latency Chart: Shows p50, p99, and p90 percentile response times over time
Request Rate Metrics
- Request Rate Chart: Displays requests per second (rps) over time
Error Metrics
- Error Percentage Chart: Shows error percentage trends over time
Top Operations
- Top Operations Table: Performance metrics table showing operation names with p99, p90, and p50 latencies
DB Metrics Section
- DB Calls RPS: Database calls requests per second
- Database Calls Avg Duration: Average duration of database calls
External Calls Section
- By External Address Stats Table: Comprehensive table showing external API calls with:
- Address: External service endpoints being called
- RPS: Requests per second to each external service
- Error %: Error percentage for external calls
- Avg Duration: Average response time for external calls
Dashboard Variables
This dashboard includes pre-configured variables for filtering:
- deployment.environment: Filter by deployment environment (production, staging, development, etc.)
- service.name: Filter by specific service names (supports multi-select)
- top_level_operation: Filter by top-level operations for the service
