A business transaction's response time has been steadily increasing over the last month. The team wants to understand if this is a gradual degradation or a step change. Which metric view would best illustrate this?

A bar chart of calls per minute for the last week.

A pie chart of response time distribution for the last hour.

A table of the top 10 slowest calls for the last day.

A line chart of average response time over the last 30 days.

An e-commerce company notices that the 'Checkout' business transaction's average response time has increased by 40% over the last hour, while calls per minute have remained steady. The operations team wants to determine whether this is a performance degradation or a normal variation. Which metric should they analyze first to make this determination?

Review the calls per minute metric to see if there is a hidden spike in volume.

Check the error rate for the 'Checkout' transaction to see if errors are causing the slowdown.

Look at the tier-level response time to see if the entire tier is affected.

Compare the current response time to the dynamic baseline for the 'Checkout' transaction.

When analyzing Business Transaction metrics over time, a sudden spike in response time with a corresponding increase in error rate most likely indicates:

A performance degradation or failure

An improvement in application performance
