Monitor Heartbeat [monitoring]

You can use the {{stack}} {{monitor-features}} to gain insight into the health of Heartbeat instances running in your environment.

To monitor Heartbeat, make sure monitoring is enabled on your {{es}} cluster, then configure the method used to collect Heartbeat metrics. You can use one of following methods:

  • Internal collection - Internal collectors send monitoring data directly to your monitoring cluster.
  • {{metricbeat}} collection - {{metricbeat}} collects monitoring data from your Heartbeat instance and sends it directly to your monitoring cluster.
