I use ZMQ sockets

componentA publishes message like `{'apm_id': 'xxx', 'data': 'event1'}` to socket and log transaction to APM  
componentB receive event1 from socket, process it for 200ms, log transaction to APM and publishes `{'apm_id': 'xxx', 'data': 'event2'}`to socket  
componentC receive event1 from socket and log transaction to APM  
componentC receive event2 from socket and log transaction to APM

I can write some very simplified python-code for this use-case and post it if necessary.  
Because now these components are parts of our big application.

But it still does not clear for me, why I see correct logs in elasticsearch but wrong visualisation.
