Abstract
A method, computer system, and computer program product are provided for providing traceability and observability for decentralized applications. A plurality of transaction metadata records are obtained corresponding to a plurality of transactions related to execution of a computing task by a decentralized application, wherein each transaction metadata record includes a same operation record that identifies the computing task, and an actor identifier that indicates an identity of an entity involved in a particular transaction of the plurality of transactions. A longitudinal history of the execution of the computing task is generated that identifies the entity involved in each transaction based on the plurality of transaction metadata records. An operational state of one or more entities is determined based on comparing the longitudinal history of the execution of the computing task to data relating to a different computing task.
