1. Application, service and workload dashboards
No more spending hours configuring application dashboards.
From the moment you describe your application in App Hub, Application Monitoring starts to automatically build dashboards tailored to your environment. Each dashboard comprises relevant telemetry for your application and is searchable, filterable and ready for deep dives — no configuration required.
The dashboards offer an overview of charts detailing the SRE Four Golden Signals: traffic, latency, error rate, and saturation. This provides a high-level view of application performance, integrating automatically collected system metrics across various services and workloads such as load balancers, Cloud Run, GKE workloads, MIGs, and databases. From this overview, you can then drill down into services or workloads with performance issues or active alerts to access detailed metrics and logs.
For example in the image below, a user defined an App Hub application called Cymbal BnB app, with multiple services and workloads. The flow below shows the automatically generated experience with golden signals, alerts and relevant logs.
