🚀 Monitoring Configuration Example

Here's a sample configuration for setting up monitoring in a typical environment. This guide assumes you're using a standard monitoring tool like Prometheus or Grafana.

🔧 Basic Configuration Steps

1. Define Monitoring Targets

   • Use scrape_configs to specify targets (e.g., servers, services).
   • Example:

     scrape_configs:  
       - job_name: "example_service"  
         targets: ["localhost:9090"]  
     

   

2. Set Up Alerts

   • Configure alert rules for critical metrics (e.g., CPU usage, error rates).
   • Example rule:

     alert: HighCPUUsage  
     expression: node_cpu_usage > 80  
     description: "CPU usage exceeds 80% on {{ $labels.instance }}"  
     

3. Visualize Data

   • Use dashboards to display metrics. Learn more about dashboard creation here.
