- Some memory allocation improvements
- Enabling bootdelegation for agent classes in Atlassian OSGI systems
- Update dsl-json which fixes a memory leak. See ngs-doo/dsl-json#102 for details.
- Avoid
VerifyError
s by non instrumenting classes compiled for Java 4 or earlier - Enable APM Server URL configuration with path (fixes #339)
- Reverse
system.hostname
andsystem.platform
order sent to APM server
- Fixes NoSuchMethodError CharBuffer.flip() which occurs when using the Elasticsearch RestClient and Java 7 or 8 (#313)
- Remove intake v1 support. This version requires APM Server 6.5.0+ which supports the intake api v2.
Until the time the APM Server 6.5.0 is officially released,
you can test with docker by pulling the APM Server image via
docker pull docker.elastic.co/apm/apm-server:6.5.0-SNAPSHOT
.
- Adds
@CaptureTransaction
and@CaptureSpan
annotations which let you declaratively add custom transactions and spans. Note that it is required to configure theapplication_packages
for this to work. See the documentation for more information. - The public API now supports to activate a span on the current thread.
This makes the span available via
ElasticApm#currentSpan()
Refer to the documentation for more details. - Capturing of Elasticsearch RestClient 5.0.2+ calls.
Currently, the
*Async
methods are not supported, only their synchronous counterparts. - Added API methods to enable correlating the spans created from the JavaScrip Real User Monitoring agent with the Java agent transaction. More information can be found in the documentation.
- Added
Transaction.isSampled()
andSpan.isSampled()
methods to the public API - Added
Transaction#setResult
to the public API (#293)
- Fix for situations where status code is reported as
200
, even though it actually was500
(#225) - Capturing the username now properly works when using Spring security (#183)
- Remove intake v1 support. This version requires APM Server 6.5.0+ which supports the intake api v2.

- Microsecond accurate timestamps (#261)
- Fix for situations where status code is reported as
200
, even though it actually was500
(#225)
- Wildcard patterns are case insensitive by default. Prepend
(?-i)
to make the matching case sensitive.
- Wildcard patterns are now not limited to only one wildcard in the middle and can be arbitrarily complex now.
Example:
*foo*bar*baz
. - Support for JAX-RS annotations.
Transactions are named based on your resources (
ResourceClass#resourceMethod
).
- Removed
ElasticApm.startSpan
. Spans can now only be created from their transactions viaTransaction#createSpan
. ElasticApm.startTransaction
andTransaction#createSpan
don't activate the transaction and spans and are thus not available viaElasticApm.activeTransaction
andElasticApm.activeSpan
.
- Public API
- Add
Span#captureException
andTransaction#captureException
to public API.ElasticApm.captureException
is deprecated now. UseElasticApm.currentSpan().captureException(exception)
instead. - Added
Transaction.getId
andSpan.getId
methods
- Add
- Added support for async servlet requests
- Added support for Payara/Glassfish
- Incubating support for Apache HttpClient
- Support for Spring RestTemplate
- Added configuration options
use_path_as_transaction_name
andurl_groups
, which allow to use the URL path as the transaction name. As that could contain path parameters, like/user/$userId
however, You can set theurl_groups
option to define a wildcard pattern, like/user/*
, to group those paths together. This is especially helpful when using an unsupported Servlet API-based framework. - Support duration suffixes (
ms
,s
andm
) for duration configuration options. Not using the duration suffix logs out a deprecation warning and will not be supported in future versions. - Add ability to add multiple APM server URLs, which enables client-side load balancing.
The configuration option
server_url
has been renamed toserver_urls
to reflect this change. However,server_url
still works for backwards compatibility. - The configuration option
service_name
is now optional. It defaults to the main class name, the name of the executed jar file (removing the version number), or the application server name (for exampletomcat-application
). In a lot of cases, you will still want to set theservice_name
explicitly. But it helps getting started and seeing data easier, as there are no required configuration options anymore. In the future we will most likely determine more useful application names for Servlet API-based applications.
