AWS X-Ray Adds the Ability to Group Traces
You can now group traces to match a filter expression. In addition, X-Ray will automatically create Amazon CloudWatch metrics for traces that match a particular group. This allows you to view service graphs and create CloudWatch alarms by the group, enhancing your ability to quickly understand and fix application issues.
