Introduction

We develop applications and run them in production. Any application running in production requires some amount of monitoring to ensure that the application is in desired health condition. This is not a choice but an absolute need to ensure smooth customer service and to be in business. Organizations spent a ton of money on their application monitoring and management infrastructure to ensure these.

Spring Boot provides Spring Boot Actuator that lets you monitor and interact with applications at no extra cost. Spring Boot Actuator provides several powerful yet easy-to-use features that make application monitoring extremely easy. It also lets you integrate with several monitoring tools such as Prometheus, Grafana to effectively use the application metrics and monitor those in real-time.
