Encore

Encore Observability API

Encore captures distributed traces, structured logs, and runtime metrics automatically from every api(), database query, Pub/Sub publish, cron tick, and outbound HTTP call. The local Development Dashboard surfaces traces, the service catalog, an auto-generated architecture flow diagram, the database explorer, and the API explorer. In production, traces and metrics ship to Encore Cloud (20M events/month included on Pro) or forward to Datadog, Grafana, Sentry, and other third-party backends.
