In the previous chapter, we learned how request and response are handled, different ways by which we can query Solr so as to get the most appropriate and relevant search results, how to use faceting search, searching based on geographical points, and distributed search.
In this chapter, we will cover:
Various monitoring metrics
Different agent-less health checks
Different agent based health checks
Various monitoring tools
We will look into different ways we can monitor Solr, what performance metrics should be interested in, and how we can achieve this by using various monitoring tools such as Opsview, New Relic, and SPM.
Let's get started.
