We often get questions about how to keep close track of customers’ server health to make sure that there’s always enough capacity and to keep our eyes open for trends that can impact performance and uptime.
This year we started using a popular monitoring system called Prometheus that captures IC Manage server metrics and visualizes the metrics on Grafana dashboards. Many in the IT community are familiar with those tools and we’ve installed those at many key customers so that they can get a real time view and alerts based on the activity of their IC Manage and Perforce server components.
