Monitor platform performance, track workflows, and set up alerting for production deployments.

## What You’ll Find Here

- **Metrics** - Performance metrics and monitoring dashboards
- **Logging** - Log aggregation and analysis
- **Health Checks** - Liveness and readiness probes
- **Alerting** - Setting up alerts for failures
- **Tracing** - Distributed tracing for complex workflows

## Key Topics

### Metrics & Dashboards

Monitor platform performance with:

- Workflow execution time
- Rows processed per second
- Memory and CPU usage
- Database connection pool metrics
- Error rates

### Logging

The platform provides structured logging:

- Application logs
- Workflow execution logs
- Database query logs
- Error stack traces

### Health Checks

For Kubernetes and Docker deployments:

- Liveness probes - Is the platform running?
- Readiness probes - Is the platform ready to accept requests?
- Startup probes - Has the platform started successfully?

## Where to Start

- Configure logging levels via environment variables
- Set up Prometheus for metrics collection
- Use Grafana for visualization dashboards
- Configure health check endpoints
