Hi all, What’s the go-to method for keeping an eye on Aerospike cluster health in production? Looking for something simple but reliable.

Thanks!

Hi @Smiths

You should have a look at our Prometheus and Grafana based monitoring stack. It exposes loads of metrics and supports alerts.

Metrics to watch:

> **[Key Metrics to Monitor](https://aerospike.com/docs/database/observe/key-metrics)**

> Key Metrics to monitor in Aerospike

Docs:
