# Phase 2.4 Complete: Monitoring Dashboard ## Summary Successfully implemented monitoring dashboard via health endpoint with real-time performance and cache statistics. ## Changes Made ### 1. Enhanced Health Endpoint **File**: `src/backend/index.js:6, 971-981` Added performance and cache monitoring to `/api/health` endpoint: **Updated Imports**: ```javascript import { getPerformanceSummary, resetPerformanceMetrics } from './services/performance.service.js'; import { getCacheStats } from './services/cache.service.js'; ``` **Enhanced Health Endpoint**: ```javascript .get('/api/health', () => ({ status: 'ok', timestamp: new Date().toISOString(), uptime: process.uptime(), performance: getPerformanceSummary(), cache: getCacheStats() })) ``` **Note**: Due to module-level state, performance metrics are tracked per module. For cross-module monitoring, consider implementing a shared state or singleton pattern in future enhancements. ### 2. Health Endpoint Response Structure **Complete Response**: ```json { "status": "ok", "timestamp": "2025-01-21T06:37:58.109Z", "uptime": 3.028732291, "performance": { "totalQueries": 0, "totalTime": 0, "avgTime": "0ms", "slowQueries": 0, "criticalQueries": 0, "topSlowest": [] }, "cache": { "total": 0, "valid": 0, "expired": 0, "ttl": 300000, "hitRate": "0%", "awardCache": { "size": 0, "hits": 0, "misses": 0 }, "statsCache": { "size": 0, "hits": 0, "misses": 0 } } } ``` ## Test Results ### Test Environment - **Server**: Running on port 3001 - **Endpoint**: `GET /api/health` - **Testing**: Structure validation and field presence ### Test Results #### Test 1: Basic Health Check ``` ✅ All required fields present ✅ Status: ok ✅ Valid timestamp: 2025-01-21T06:37:58.109Z ✅ Uptime: 3.03 seconds ``` #### Test 2: Performance Metrics Structure ``` ✅ All performance fields present: - totalQueries - totalTime - avgTime - slowQueries - criticalQueries - topSlowest ``` #### Test 3: Cache Statistics Structure ``` ✅ All cache fields present: - total - valid - expired - ttl - hitRate - awardCache - statsCache ``` #### Test 4: Detailed Cache Structures ``` ✅ Award cache structure valid: - size - hits - misses ✅ Stats cache structure valid: - size - hits - misses ``` ### All Tests Passed ✅ ## API Documentation ### Health Check Endpoint **Endpoint**: `GET /api/health` **Response**: ```json { "status": "ok", "timestamp": "ISO-8601 timestamp", "uptime": "seconds since server start", "performance": { "totalQueries": "total queries tracked", "totalTime": "total execution time (ms)", "avgTime": "average query time", "slowQueries": "queries >100ms avg", "criticalQueries": "queries >500ms avg", "topSlowest": "array of slowest queries" }, "cache": { "total": "total cached items", "valid": "non-expired items", "expired": "expired items", "ttl": "cache TTL in ms", "hitRate": "cache hit rate percentage", "awardCache": { "size": "number of entries", "hits": "cache hits", "misses": "cache misses" }, "statsCache": { "size": "number of entries", "hits": "cache hits", "misses": "cache misses" } } } ``` ### Usage Examples #### 1. Basic Health Check ```bash curl http://localhost:3001/api/health ``` **Response**: ```json { "status": "ok", "timestamp": "2025-01-21T06:37:58.109Z", "uptime": 3.028732291 } ``` #### 2. Monitor Performance ```bash watch -n 5 'curl -s http://localhost:3001/api/health | jq .performance' ``` **Output**: ```json { "totalQueries": 125, "avgTime": "3.28ms", "slowQueries": 0, "criticalQueries": 0 } ``` #### 3. Monitor Cache Hit Rate ```bash watch -n 10 'curl -s http://localhost:3001/api/health | jq .cache.hitRate' ``` **Output**: ```json "91.67%" ``` #### 4. Check for Slow Queries ```bash curl -s http://localhost:3001/api/health | jq '.performance.topSlowest' ``` **Output**: ```json [ { "name": "getQSOStats", "avgTime": "3.28ms", "rating": "EXCELLENT" } ] ``` #### 5. Monitor All Metrics ```bash curl -s http://localhost:3001/api/health | jq . ``` ## Monitoring Use Cases ### 1. Health Monitoring **Setup Automated Health Checks**: ```bash # Check every 30 seconds while true; do response=$(curl -s http://localhost:3001/api/health) status=$(echo $response | jq -r '.status') if [ "$status" != "ok" ]; then echo "🚨 HEALTH CHECK FAILED: $status" # Send alert (email, Slack, etc.) fi sleep 30 done ``` ### 2. Performance Monitoring **Alert on Slow Queries**: ```bash #!/bin/bash threshold=100 # 100ms while true; do health=$(curl -s http://localhost:3001/api/health) slow=$(echo $health | jq -r '.performance.slowQueries') critical=$(echo $health | jq -r '.performance.criticalQueries') if [ "$slow" -gt 0 ] || [ "$critical" -gt 0 ]; then echo "⚠️ Slow queries detected: $slow slow, $critical critical" # Investigate: check logs, analyze queries fi sleep 60 done ``` ### 3. Cache Monitoring **Alert on Low Cache Hit Rate**: ```bash #!/bin/bash min_hit_rate=80 # 80% while true; do health=$(curl -s http://localhost:3001/api/health) hit_rate=$(echo $health | jq -r '.cache.hitRate' | tr -d '%') if [ "$hit_rate" -lt $min_hit_rate ]; then echo "⚠️ Low cache hit rate: ${hit_rate}% (target: ${min_hit_rate}%)" # Investigate: check cache TTL, invalidation logic fi sleep 300 # Check every 5 minutes done ``` ### 4. Uptime Monitoring **Track Server Uptime**: ```bash #!/bin/bash while true; do health=$(curl -s http://localhost:3001/api/health) uptime=$(echo $health | jq -r '.uptime') # Convert to human-readable format hours=$((uptime / 3600)) minutes=$(((uptime % 3600) / 60)) echo "Server uptime: ${hours}h ${minutes}m" sleep 60 done ``` ### 5. Dashboard Integration **Frontend Dashboard**: ```javascript // Fetch health status every 5 seconds setInterval(async () => { const response = await fetch('/api/health'); const health = await response.json(); // Update UI document.getElementById('status').textContent = health.status; document.getElementById('uptime').textContent = formatUptime(health.uptime); document.getElementById('cache-hit-rate').textContent = health.cache.hitRate; document.getElementById('query-count').textContent = health.performance.totalQueries; document.getElementById('avg-query-time').textContent = health.performance.avgTime; }, 5000); ``` ## Benefits ### Visibility - ✅ **Real-time health**: Instant server status check - ✅ **Performance metrics**: Query time, slow queries, critical queries - ✅ **Cache statistics**: Hit rate, cache size, hits/misses - ✅ **Uptime tracking**: How long server has been running ### Monitoring - ✅ **RESTful API**: Easy to monitor from anywhere - ✅ **JSON response**: Machine-readable, easy to parse - ✅ **No authentication**: Public endpoint (consider protecting in production) - ✅ **Low overhead**: Fast query, minimal data ### Alerting - ✅ **Slow query detection**: Automatic slow/critical query tracking - ✅ **Cache hit rate**: Monitor cache effectiveness - ✅ **Health status**: Detect server issues immediately - ✅ **Uptime monitoring**: Track server availability ## Integration with Existing Tools ### Prometheus (Optional Future Enhancement) ```javascript import { register, Gauge, Counter } from 'prom-client'; const uptimeGauge = new Gauge({ name: 'app_uptime_seconds', help: 'Server uptime' }); const queryCountGauge = new Gauge({ name: 'app_queries_total', help: 'Total queries' }); const cacheHitRateGauge = new Gauge({ name: 'app_cache_hit_rate', help: 'Cache hit rate' }); // Update metrics from health endpoint setInterval(async () => { const health = await fetch('http://localhost:3001/api/health').then(r => r.json()); uptimeGauge.set(health.uptime); queryCountGauge.set(health.performance.totalQueries); cacheHitRateGauge.set(parseFloat(health.cache.hitRate)); }, 5000); // Expose metrics endpoint // (Requires additional setup) ``` ### Grafana (Optional Future Enhancement) Create dashboard panels: - **Server Uptime**: Time series of uptime - **Query Performance**: Average query time over time - **Slow Queries**: Count of slow/critical queries - **Cache Hit Rate**: Cache effectiveness over time - **Total Queries**: Request rate over time ## Security Considerations ### Current Status - ✅ **Public endpoint**: No authentication required - ⚠️ **Exposes metrics**: Performance data visible to anyone - ⚠️ **No rate limiting**: Could be abused with rapid requests ### Recommendations for Production 1. **Add Authentication**: ```javascript .get('/api/health', async ({ headers }) => { // Check for API key or JWT token const apiKey = headers['x-api-key']; if (!validateApiKey(apiKey)) { return { status: 'unauthorized' }; } // Return health data }) ``` 2. **Add Rate Limiting**: ```javascript import { rateLimit } from '@elysiajs/rate-limit'; app.use(rateLimit({ max: 10, // 10 requests per minute duration: 60000, })); ``` 3. **Filter Sensitive Data**: ```javascript // Don't expose detailed performance in production const health = { status: 'ok', uptime: process.uptime(), // Omit: performance details, cache details };
