Monitoring Architecture Patterns

1. Overview

Monitoring architecture patterns refer to the structured approaches used to implement monitoring solutions in systems. These patterns help to ensure that applications are reliable, performant, and maintainable by providing necessary insights into their behavior.

2. Common Patterns

• Centralized Monitoring
• Distributed Monitoring
• Agent-Based Monitoring
• Cloud-Based Monitoring

3. Implementation Steps

1. Identify monitoring requirements.
2. Select appropriate monitoring tools.
3. Design monitoring architecture.
4. Implement monitoring agents and services.
5. Configure alerting and reporting.

const monitor = require('monitoring-tool');

monitor.start({
    metrics: ['CPU', 'Memory', 'Network'],
    alertThreshold: {
        cpu: 80,
        memory: 75,
    },
});

4. Best Practices

• Keep monitoring lightweight to avoid performance impacts.
• Regularly review and update monitoring configuration.
• Ensure redundancy in monitoring tools.
• Use dashboards for visual representation of metrics.
