Systems and methods of implementing tracking of resource usage for a cloud-based system

The technology disclosed describes systems and methods for implementing global profiling to track resource usage and performance for multiple threads across multiple servers for a cloud-based system. This disclosed technology provides global profiling to track resource usage across any part of a transaction as it passes between layers of a computing stack regardless of the language being executed, on logically different virtual machines across multiple servers. After data collection stops, the disclosed technology combines the results into a configurable profile view that accurately represents the order of execution of applications and methods, as though they ran on one machine. The disclosed technology builds multiple formats of the data files for different display visualizations.
