# User docker compose to stand up whole stack Elasticsearch, Kibana and APM server
# You can ^C to stop afterwards you can use `start` and `stop` commands
# THIS IS NOT A PRODUCTION SETUP
# Docker compose file elastic-apm-compose.yml found here : https://gist.github.com/bvader/9665fa7b3bd69457517e41a7c28b4725
TAG=7.3.0 docker-compose -f elastic-apm-compose.yml up


# After the stack is full running please go to
http://localhost:5601/app/kibana#/home/tutorial/apm?_g=()

# And check the following
# The Server Status and
# The Agent will say it is already good that is a minor bug
# Load Kibana Objects
# Now you are ready to go.

# Point your browser to http://localhost:8200
# Click around in the petclince app and navigate to APM in Kibana
# You should see transactions front end and back end. 
# In the Petclinic App got to Find Owners
# 1) Search with Last Name : <empty>, returns all Ownders Fast
# 2) Search with Last Name : Davis, returns 2 Owners Fast
# 3) Search with Last Name : Deckard, Returns no Owners...very slow
# Can you figure out why? Where is the bad method?

# Then point your own apps if you want
