Dienstmonitors
Dienstmonitors are monitoring systems that observe the health, performance, and availability of services within an organization’s IT environment. They collect metrics such as uptime, latency, error rates, throughput, and resource usage, and they map dependencies between services to provide an overview of the service ecosystem. Dienstmonitors can support different layers, including infrastructure, applications, and business services.
Monitoring methods commonly used include active and passive approaches. Active monitoring uses synthetic transactions and probes
Alerts and reporting are central to Dienstmonitors. They trigger notifications when predefined thresholds or service-level objectives
Implementation considerations include scalability, standardization of metrics and alerts, data retention policies, and security and privacy
