Seer uses a lightweight RPC-level tracing system to collect request traces and aggregate them in a Cassandra database. When a QoS violation is predicted to occur and a culprit microservice located, Seer uses a lower level tracing infrastructure with hardware monitoring primitives to identify the reason behind the QoS violation.
