Monitoring service availability

When your application is deployed, you would of course like to get an alert when you application (service) is not available anymore. To automatically monitor you applications for availability, Otomi automatically configures a prope to monitor your service.

Monitor your application for availability

  • Create a Service for your app in Otomi. The service can have an Exposure ingress of type Cluster or Ingress
  • Open the Prometheus app in your apps

kubecfg

  • In Prometheus, Go to Status and click on Targets

You will see the prope-service-<team-name> endpoint. First in an UNKNOWN state:

kubecfg

But after a couple of minutes the state will be UP:

kubecfg

When alertmanager is enabled, and an alert notification receiver is configured, you will automatically receive an alert when your service is down.
