Investigating

A degradation in the performance of the Splunk APM trace processing pipeline is causing Troubleshooting MetricSets and Monitoring MetricSets to be delayed by more than five minutes. As a result, the APM Troubleshooting experience, service maps and Tag Spotlight do not have access to the most recent data.

The processing of metrics for Business Workflows, which also depends on this pipeline, are equally delayed. Trace data ingest is not impacted at this time.
