Monitoring

[juliangruber]

• We should build observability into our systems from the beginning. Make sure we are collecting the right data needed to understand what’s happening in the system, and that we are visualising this data in a way that enables the understanding.
• I have heard good things about https://www.honeycomb.io/, but since PL is heavily invested into Grafana, we can use Grafana too.
• Error monitoring
  → Integrate Sentry
• Do we have strong enough Fly.io instance to handle the load?
  → We can use Fly.io dashboard to see the stats
• This may require improvements in Zinnia APIs and Zinnia Runtime
  • Observability for Module Builders - how do I know if my module running in Stations is working correctly?
  • zinniad: report metrics for observability
  • we don’t need this yet
