Hatena Co., Ltd. is pleased to announce that the APM (Application Performance Monitoring) function, which has been available as a beta version on its observability platform “Mackerel” since April 2025, has been officially released, May 1, 2025.
APM is a general term for technologies and functions that visualize application performance and processing status, and help optimize performance, detect problems early, and identify their causes.
Mackerel’s APM function aims to understand application performance degradation and error conditions, and to support rapid response from identifying the cause to resolving them. In addition to traditional infrastructure monitoring, it also provides detailed tracking on a transaction basis and identifies bottlenecks in HTTP requests and database access, contributing to improved application monitoring and observability.

For details on the features of the APM function, the pricing structure, and the “Mackerel APM Release Party” event scheduled to be held on May 28, 2025, please see the article on the “Mackerel blog.”
The situation surrounding server monitoring and management, which is Mackerel’s focus, has changed since its release in September 2014. In recent years, with the evolution of system architectures such as cloud native, the concept of “observability,” which allows you to understand the overall system status and respond to unknown issues, has become increasingly important.
In order to deal with more complex problems and system changes, Mackerel will continue to promote development in the observability field as an “easy-to-start, deep observability platform.” On the technical side, we will expand the supported environment based on the observability standard OpenTelemetry, while realizing an observability experience that is unique to Mackerel, which is easy to introduce and easy for teams to adopt.
