Each trace has a string of globally unique characters called a trace ID that's passed between frontend and backend services.

A trace is a record of a series of connected events and operations coming from your application. Each trace has a string of globally unique characters called a trace ID that's passed between frontend and backend services. The trace ID connects all the actions that take place, starting from the moment a user performs an action on the frontend, all the way through to the actions this triggers across your application and services. Each trace is composed of multiple spans.

### What's a Span?
2424
A span is a named, timed operation that represents a part of the application workflow. The data captured for each span provides granular insights into specific tasks, like API requests or database queries. Multiple spans are pieced together to create a trace, providing a comprehensive overview of how your application works, to make it easier to troubleshoot and analyze performance issues.
