Monitoring Microservices in Node.js
When working with microservices architecture and Node.js, you need to monitor microservices in Node.js.
We’ll start this chapter by understanding the principles of monitoring microservices. Monitoring microservices in a Node.js environment is crucial for ensuring the health, performance, and reliability of the system. Also, it is an ongoing process that requires continuous refinement and adaptation to changing requirements. By employing a comprehensive monitoring strategy, teams can proactively identify and address issues, optimize performance, and ensure the overall reliability and security of the microservices architecture.
By the end of this chapter, you will have learned how to constantly monitor microservices in Node.js.
In this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:
- Structured logging and log levels
- Contextual information and centralized log management
