System Health Monitoring

System Health Monitoring

Hardware and software health monitoring including CPU temperature, memory usage, disk space, network interface status, and service availability. Covers health check endpoints, performance metrics collection, and alerting based on threshold violations.

Service Capabilities

  • Metrics Collection: Gathering performance and health data from all systems
  • Real-Time Monitoring: Live dashboards showing current system status
  • Historical Analysis: Trend analysis and performance pattern identification
  • Alert Generation: Notifications when thresholds are exceeded or services fail
  • Performance Optimization: Identifying bottlenecks and optimization opportunities
  • Capacity Planning: Tracking growth trends and resource utilization patterns
  • Audit Logging: Complete record of system changes and events

Monitoring Categories

  • CPU Monitoring: Processor utilization and temperature tracking
  • Memory Monitoring: RAM usage and swap utilization
  • Disk Monitoring: Storage capacity and I/O performance
  • Network Monitoring: Interface status, traffic analysis, and bandwidth usage
  • Service Monitoring: Individual service health and availability
  • Application Monitoring: Performance metrics for critical applications
  • Security Monitoring: Intrusion detection and policy violation alerts

Configuration Highlights

  • Performance Baselines: Establishing normal operating parameters for comparison
  • Threshold Alerts: Automatic notifications when values exceed safe limits
  • Multi-Channel Alerts: SMS, email, and push notification support
  • Integration: Coordination with management and security services
  • Retention: Long-term metric storage for trend analysis
  • Visualization: Dashboards and graphs for easy interpretation
