PSA don't use Datadog agent in a GraphQL project

  A Node.js PostgreSQL client with runtime and build time type safety, and composable SQL.

What is even worse, is that it is in no way obvious when looking at the traces that it is DD agent's fault. It just adds what looks like weird TCP connect delays, and made us think it is an issue with our postgres client.

  GraphQL execution using a JIT compiler

  

We faced something similar. To improve GraphQL performance, we use graphql-jit. We turned off all other tracing that datadog turns on by default. Then, we then wrote a custom tracer to connect graphql-jit to dd-trace. Hopefully this same pattern works for you!

• SurveyJS

  surveyjs.io sponsored

  Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
