Hi and welcome to the forum 👋

By default, the Java agent has built-in tracing points for incoming HTTP requests, JDBC, HTTP clients and some more: [Supported technologies | APM Java Agent Reference [master] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/master/supported-technologies-details.html)

There are several ways how you can get more method level insight: [How to find slow methods | APM Java Agent Reference [master] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/master/java-method-monitoring.html)
