A database of module performance may be generated by adding tracing components to applications, as well as by adding tracing components to modules themselves. Modules may be reusable code that may be made available for reuse across multiple applications. When tracing is performed on an application level, the data collected from each module may be summarized in module-specific databases. The module-specific databases may be public databases that may assist application developers in selecting modules for various tasks. The module-specific databases may include usage and performance data, as well as stability and robustness metrics, error logs, and analyzes of similar modules. The database may be accessed through links in module description pages and repositories, as well as through a website or other repository.
