Introduction

Scaling the FRMS Solution effectively means we will need to observe bottlenecks to scale effectively. Our monitoring Solution consists of Prometheus (Prometheus - Monitoring system & time series database ) for data collection and Grafana (Grafana: The open and composable observability platform | Grafana Labs ) for data visualization.

Our NATS , DNS and Arango metrics are all being scraped by Prometheus.

 

Data Source

Before we can import any dashboard we require a datasource. Open the Grafana Dashboard.

  1. Navigate to Add Data Source and choose Prometheus:

     

  2. Point towards your prometheus Server:

     

  3. Scroll to the end, Press “Save & Test“ - if all is well, you should see the following message:

 

Dashboards

We will mainly be importing dashboard in this example, but you are welcome to create your own.

Navigate to dashboards:

  1. Click import

     

  2. You can import via JSON or Dashboard Code


Depending on dashboard, remember to set datasource to our defined Prometheus data source.
