A method for capturing breakpoint information from a debuggee software process includes generating a breakpoint condition based upon a breakpoint request received from a user computing device corresponding to a user and transmitting the generated breakpoint condition to debuglets, each corresponding to a software process executed by a debuggee service. The debuggee service executes on a distributed system, and each debuglet translates the generated breakpoint condition to a physical breakpoint condition set to the respective software process. The method also includes receiving a request from one of the debuglets to update active breakpoint information captured by the debuglet upon the physical breakpoint condition being hit by one of the software processes and transmitting a notification from the processing device indicating the physical breakpoint condition being hit to the user computing device.
