== Monitoring Logstash with APIs
|
|
|
|
When you run Logstash, it automatically captures runtime metrics that you can
|
|
use to monitor the health and performance of your Logstash deployment.
|
|
|
|
The metrics collected by Logstash include:
|
|
|
|
* Logstash node info, like pipeline settings, OS info, and JVM info.
|
|
* Plugin info, including a list of installed plugins.
|
|
* Node stats, like JVM stats, process stats, event-related stats, and pipeline
|
|
runtime stats.
|
|
* Hot threads.
|
|
|
|
You can use <<monitoring,monitoring APIs>> provided by Logstash
|
|
to retrieve these metrics. These APIs are available by default without
|
|
requiring any extra configuration.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can <<configuring-logstash,configure {monitoring}>> to send
|
|
data to a monitoring cluster.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Monitoring is a feature under the Basic License and is therefore
|
|
*free to use*.
