“With microservices every outage is like a murder mystery” is a common complaint. But it doesn’t have to be! This talk gives an overview on how to monitor distributed applications. We dive into: System metrics: Keep track of network traffic and system load. Application logs: Collect structured logs in a central location. Audit info: Watch for user and processes activity in the system. Uptime monitoring: Ping services and actively monitor their availability and response time. Application metrics: Get metrics and health information from for application via REST or JMX. Request tracing: Gather timing data by using tools like Zipkin to retrieve and show call traces.
