Exposing More Public Endpoints for Sending Metrics and Errors to AppSignal
Today, we launch a new feature: sending metrics and errors to AppSignal over our “Public Endpoint” API. AppSignal has many web frameworks, databases and background job frameworks automatically instrumented when you want to monitor a Node.js, Ruby or Elixir app. If you have code running on serverless architecture such as AWS Lambda, you can’t run our agent, so our standard integration with all of the out-of-the-box magic won’t work.
Not knowing real time asset intelligence is a non starter
Complexity breaks correlation. Intelligence brings cohesion. This simple principle is what makes real-time asset intelligence a must-have for AIOps that is meant to diffuse complexity. To further create a context for the user, it is critical to understand service dependencies and correlate alerts across the stack to resolve incidents. CMDB systems have been useful to break down configuration items into logical layers. But, that’s not enough because they can become outdated very soon.

Resource check profile - Monitor Windows event logs and Linux syslogs
Monitor the internal resources in your server such as event logs and syslogs to monitor specific events across all Windows and Linux servers. Internet-facing systems constantly confront the risk of security hacks and data theft. While you're monitoring key performance metrics of your servers, keeping an eye out for security incidents is also necessary. This can be achieved through event log monitoring for Windows servers, and syslog monitoring for Linux servers.
Monitoring critical windows services and processes
Along with server performance metrics, such as CPU, disk, and memory usage, it is important to monitor the performance of each service and process running on the server to completely analyze the load on the system resources. This video shows how Site24x7 helps you achieve that. Say you're monitoring a Windows server with Site24x7. Along with tracking the performance metrics of the server, you can also track the performance of critical services like MySQL, Apache, and PostgreSQL, and processes like redis-server.exe.
Monitor dependency and alert suppression
A network outage triggers multiple redundant alerts and burns out your alert balance. Site24x7's monitor dependency configuration helps you effectively handle the alert flood during an outage. Let's say you're monitoring your server with Site24x7, along with a few plugins hosted in it. Any downtime faced by the server will also affect the plugins, resulting in a flood of alerts for the server and the individual plugins.
