[Feature] Group Redis resources under the same operation

[zBart]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently each PHP Redis call is traced under a separate operation:

This makes is very difficult to see how many requests are actually being done, as it would mean having to click each operation and see. Additionally on the APM overview you can only see the primary operation count, which isn't a very good indication of how active the server is.

Describe the solution you'd like Under Java, Datadog logs all operations under the same operation (redis.query):

This way you get a more accurate count of requests being done.

One change that might be needed is to group connects under a separate operation (for example redis.connect) because under PHP you generally connect every requests (vs Java which can have keep connections open), otherwise the numbers might get skewed.

Thanks for the feature request. This does look like it would make things more consistent. I'll talk to the product manager to see when it can get scheduled.

Any updates on this?

Hi @bwoebi! Would you have more info on this one?

It looks like a low hanging fruit that would have a great impact IMO :+1:
