Monitoring & Observability

The current monitoring surface is best described as a workspace health overview, not yet as a full per-service observability suite.


What the Current Monitoring Page Does

Today, the monitoring page focuses on:

  • live project loading
  • deployment and project health summary cards
  • quick status labels such as healthy, in progress, or needs attention
  • direct navigation back into project detail pages

This gives operators and developers a fast workspace-level snapshot.


Current Metrics Style

The current UI emphasizes summary-style status cards such as:

Current viewPurpose
Healthy deploymentsQuick count of ready deployments
Active rolloutsHighlights ongoing build/deploy activity
Projects trackedWorkspace project count
DatabasesDatabase project visibility in the same workspace

Current Status List

The status list currently shows:

  • project name
  • project kind
  • updated time
  • health-style status label
  • quick link to open the project

This is useful operationally, but it is not the same thing as a deep metrics explorer.


Logs, Notifications, and Scanner Context

The wider dashboard also includes:

  • a logs page
  • a notifications page
  • an image scanner page

However, in the current frontend:

  • notifications are still built around local preferences plus generated activity feed data
  • monitoring is primarily summary-oriented
  • the image scanner page is still more preview/simulated than a fully live registry-security console

Do not document the current UI as if it already exposes full live Prometheus charts, Grafana dashboards, Loki search, and Alertmanager rule management directly to end users. The present experience is more lightweight and workspace-centered.


Realistic Expectation

What you can accurately promise today:

  • workspace-level health visibility
  • fast detection of unhealthy projects
  • simple operational navigation
  • a cleaner entry point into project and deployment troubleshooting

What should still be described more carefully:

  • deep metrics drill-down
  • full alert-rule authoring from the UI
  • complete real-time log and scan correlation across all services
