To effectively monitor API performance, follow these best practices:

  1. Use Built-in Metrics

    • Track response time, error rates, and throughput via the API Gateway dashboard.

  2. Set Up Alerts

    • Configure thresholds for latency or failure rates using the Alert Management system.
    Performance_Alert_Thresholds

  3. Analyze Logs

    • Use centralized logging tools like ELK Stack or Splunk to debug performance bottlenecks.

  4. Optimize Caching

    • Enable caching for frequently accessed endpoints to reduce load times.
