 To manage the [APM traced invocation sampling rate][17] for serverless functions, set the `DD_TRACE_SAMPLING_RULES` environment variable on the function to a value between 0.000 (no tracing of Lambda function invocations) and 1.000 (trace all Lambda function invocations).

    - The use of `DD_TRACE_SAMPLE_RATE` is deprecated. Use `DD_TRACE_SAMPLING_RULES` instead. For instance, if you already set `DD_TRACE_SAMPLE_RATE` to `0.1`, set `DD_TRACE_SAMPLING_RULES` to `[{"sample_rate":0.1}]` instead.

 For high throughput services, there's usually no need for you to collect every single request as trace data is very repetitive—an important enough problem should always show symptoms in multiple traces. [Ingestion controls][18] help you to have the visibility that you need to troubleshoot problems while remaining within budget.
