Monitoring
The kdb Insights Database can be configured to report metrics about data ingested and queries serviced, which can be reported to a monitoring endpoint. The actual scraping of these metrics is done by the kdb Insights sidecar container which uses the kxi-sidecar
image, and can be be set to report to an event monitoring and alerting application such as Prometheus.
Docker example
See the Docker metrics example for a complete deployment example for metrics.
