How to implement effective LLM observability and tracing?

Opening the black box: How to debug complex chains and monitor production performance.

Debugging the Non-Deterministic

Traditional APM tools aren't enough for LLMs. You need to see the prompt, the completion, and the intermediate steps.

What to Trace

  • Inputs/Outputs: Log every prompt and response.
  • Latency per Step: Identify which part of the chain is slow.
  • Token Usage: Track costs down to the user or feature level.
