             Summary: Apache SkyWalking: Python agent supports profiling
                 Key: COMDEV-386
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-386
             Project: Community Development
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: GSoC/Mentoring ideas
            Reporter: Zhenxu Ke


Apache SkyWalking [1] is an application performance monitor (APM) tool for 
distributed systems, especially designed for microservices, cloud native and 
container-based (Docker, K8s, Mesos) architectures.

SkyWalking is based on agent to instrument (automatically) monitored services, 
for now, we have many agents for different languages, Python agent [2] is one 
of them, which supports automatic instrumentations.

The goal of this project is to extend the agent's features by supporting 
profiling [3] a function's invocation stack, help the users to analyze which 
method costs the most major time in a cross-services call.

To complete this task, you must be comfortable with Python, have some knowledge 
of tracing system, otherwise you'll have a hard time coming up to speed..
