App profiler suggestion needed

Hi, our app is using multiple different pieces of code.
-Django
-Hasura
-Postgres
-Celery
-Firebase and a few small codes in python.

Now we want to understand optimize the code and find bottlenecks across the flow to work on improving it.
Is Hasura calls taking more time or is the DB having I/O issues?

Till now I found PySpy profiler as an option but I think it's only for the python code. I want to test the performance of the entire backend.

P.S- I am not the coder but I am trying to help my Dev team with suggestions.

    if you're not a coder... then, i'd just leave it to them to figure it out, right? it's in their wheelhouse and they'll know better than you what to try and do.

    and, perhaps most importantly, they'll feel like they own the solution... instead of just accepting one from "management" — i know this because i've been a software programmer for 22+ years... and the last thing i want is management to be handing me optimization software and telling me to use it (not that you are... but, you get my point).

    get buy-in from them. that's leadership.

    (is there another concern here though? i'm reading between the lines...)

      This isn't any management here. I work on the UX and its a 3 people team. I know enough to know what I am looking for and looking to suggest some options by looking around. We keep ur ego at the side for there is no "ur and mine" yet. Not promising it would be in the future.
      For example, Sentry.io is one option I found but it doesn't solve exactly what we are looking for.
      Thanks for the reply and have a good one.
