- dd-java-agent: the -javaagent flag plus service, env, version
Java APM with dd-java-agent: add -javaagent with the jar path, set service/env/version, and the tracer auto-instruments. Version of the agent jar matters. Not the full reference manual.
- dd-trace for Node: npm install dd-trace, require and init it before any app code
Node APM with dd-trace: npm install dd-trace, then require and init the tracer before any other import. Initialization order is the classic failure. Not the full reference manual.
