1. A method of aggregating metrics associated with a user interaction during a real user session, the method comprising:
identifying a tagged span from a plurality of ingested spans associated with the real user session, wherein the tagged span is associated with a workflow, wherein further the workflow comprises spans generated in response to the user interaction, and wherein the tagged span comprises a tag associated with the workflow;
identifying at least one associated span from the plurality of ingested spans, wherein the at least one associated span is associated with the workflow;
consolidating the at least one associated span with the tagged span into a group of spans associated with the workflow; and
computing metrics for the workflow over a duration of time using the group of spans.
