Monitoring

Gluesync 2 provides a comprehensive monitoring stack that combines three powerful monitoring approaches:

Control Plane UI

The Control Plane provides an intuitive web interface for real-time monitoring of your Gluesync deployment. It offers:

Immediate visibility into pipeline status and health
Real-time operational metrics and system state
Basic troubleshooting capabilities
Quick access to system configuration

For detailed information, see Control Plane Monitoring.

Prometheus Integration

Prometheus serves as the backbone for metrics collection and storage in Gluesync. It comes pre-configured with every kit with some basic settings you can adjust and fine tune based on your needs:

services:
  prometheus:
    image: prom/prometheus
    restart: 'unless-stopped'
    volumes:
      - ./prometheus-gs2.yml:/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml
      - ./data:/prometheus
    command:
      - '--config.file=/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml'
      - '--storage.tsdb.retention.size=10GB'
      - '--storage.tsdb.retention.time=7d'
    ports:
      - 9090:9090

Default config include:

Metrics collection with 7-day retention
10GB storage capacity for historical data
Automatic restart capability
Pre-configured prometheus.yml for Gluesync metrics

For implementation details, see Prometheus Integration.

Grafana Dashboards

Gluesync ships with pre-built Grafana dashboards that provide comprehensive pipeline monitoring:

Real-time performance metrics showing read/write latencies
End-to-end pipeline timing visualization
Data transfer volume tracking with historical trends
Row count monitoring across all tables

The default dashboard includes:

Latency graphs for read and write operations
Pipeline-specific timing metrics
Total data transferred monitoring
Row count transfer tracking
