A degradation in the performance of the Splunk APM data ingestion pipeline is causing the processing and storage of raw trace data to be delayed by more than five minutes. No data is being lost at this time and MetricSets are not impacted but the most recent data may not be available in trace search results.

We are continuing to investigate the degradation in the Splunk APM data ingestion pipeline. Processing and storage of raw trace data remains delayed by more than five minutes, so the most recent data may not be available in trace search results. No data is being lost at this time, and MetricSets are not impacted. Teams are working to restore normal processing and reduce ingestion delays.

The degradation in the Splunk APM data ingestion pipeline has been mitigated and is now resolved. Processing and storage of raw trace data has recovered, and recent data is available in trace search results. No data was lost, and MetricSets were not impacted. Thank you for your patience.
