# APM Services

After instrumenting your application, proceed to examine the Services page, the primary view for your APM data.

This services list reports, at a high level, on all services in your infrastructure. Remember that [services](https://docs.kloudfuse.com/platform/3.2.5/glossary/#service) are the building blocks of modern microservice architectures, grouping endpoints, queries, or jobs so you can easily scale your instances.

Some examples of services are:

- A group of URL endpoints may be grouped together under an API service.
- A group of DB queries that are grouped together within one database service.
- A group of periodic jobs configured in the cron service.

Follow these steps to get to the **Services** interface:

1. Click the **APM** tab, and then the **Services** option in the drop-down menu.

2. The **Services** interface appears.

## Using the APM Services interface

The **Services** interface has the following information and affordances:

01. **[Filters](https://docs.kloudfuse.com/platform/3.2.5/apm-filters/)** help you to determine what requires your immediate attention. For details, see [APM Filters](https://docs.kloudfuse.com/platform/3.2.5/apm-filters/).

To show filters, expand the filters: click the  (Show filters) icon in the top left corner of the page.

To hide the filters, click the  (Hide filters) icon in the top right corner of the filter panel.

02. **View type** selector enables you to specify the search view by selecting one of the following modes:

[APM Services view](https://docs.kloudfuse.com/platform/3.2.5/apm-services/#)

[APM Databases view](https://docs.kloudfuse.com/platform/3.2.5/apm-databases/)

[APM Service Map view](https://docs.kloudfuse.com/platform/3.2.5/apm-service-map/)

03. **Show inactive services** option:

- Toggle the selector OFF to display only the services that sent data within the selected time block.
    - Toggle the selector ON to display all services, including the ones that may be stopped or paused. Because the services were inactive during the relevant time interval, they have empty columns.

See the row **frontend-web** in [APM Services](https://docs.kloudfuse.com/platform/3.2.5/apm-services/#apm-services-image) illustration.

04. **Overall interval**. The default is **Last 5 minutes**. Click the drop-down to use the time picker and select the appropriate time interval.

05. **Refresh display**: click  (Refresh) to update the display.

06. The  (Options) menu controls which elements to display in the table:

- Name
    - Requests (number)
    - Requests/s
    - p50 Latency
    - p75 Latency
    - p90 Latency
    - p95 Latency
    - p99 Latency
    - Max Latency
    - Min Latency
    - Average Latency
    - Error Rate
    - APDEX

07. Use **Search** to find a service by name when you have a long list.

08. The list of all services that match search and filtering criteria. The columns match the selected [options](https://docs.kloudfuse.com/platform/3.2.5/apm-services/#column-options).

Note that the **Name** column shows some of the facets. Each entry is unique if it has a unique combination of facets. Duplicate service names are very common, so Kloudfuse displays the unique facet to identify the service.

It also has a color bar that corresponds to the type of service: front end, trace, and so on. See [APM Service map](https://docs.kloudfuse.com/platform/3.2.5/apm-service-map/).

If you hover your pointer over one of the listed services, it displays the filter value details.

09. Specify the **number of results** you can see on each page.

10. Navigate **across pages** by clicking individual page numbers, or  (forward) and  (backward) arrows.
