Demo project for Monitoring

watch -n 1 http -a user:password monitoring-demo.localhost/

watch http -a user:password monitoring-demo.localhost/hello

for counter in {1..5}; do http -a user:password monitoring-demo.localhost/db & done

1. present demo app endpoints - /, /hello, /db
2. start bash requests
3. show that, with no probes configured, we have periods of unavailability

1. pom.xml - add actuator dependency

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-actuator</artifactId>
    </dependency>

2. test /actuator

3. add exemption for authentication for /health so that it can be used in k8s probes

      it.requestMatchers(EndpointRequest.to(HealthEndpoint::class.java)).permitAll()

4. configure k8s sts to use probes (liveness, readiness, deploy, show slow startup)

   livenessProbe:
     httpGet:
       port: http
       path: /actuator/health/liveness
     failureThreshold: 3
   readinessProbe:
     httpGet:
       port: http
       path: /actuator/health/readiness
     periodSeconds: 60
     failureThreshold: 1

5. configure startup

     startupProbe:
       httpGet:
         port: http
         path: /actuator/health/readiness
       failureThreshold: 100
       periodSeconds: 1

6. deploy, show fast start and endpoints: ../liveness & ../readiness

7. show details when authorized

   management:
     endpoint:
       health:
         show-details: when_authorized

8. turn off the database, show that liveness & readiness do not fail

9. include db into readiness

   management:
     endpoint:
       health:
         show-details: when_authorized
         group:
           readiness:
             include:
             - readinessState
             - db

1. pom.xml - add micrometer dependency

    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.micrometer</groupId>
        <artifactId>micrometer-registry-prometheus</artifactId>
    </dependency>

2. expose prometheus endpoint

   endpoints:
     web:
       exposure:
         include:
         - info
         - health
         - prometheus

3. add security exemption for metrics

   it.requestMatchers(EndpointRequest.to(InfoEndpoint::class.java, HealthEndpoint::class.java, PrometheusScrapeEndpoint::class.java)).permitAll()

1. start requests for / and /hello
2. show servicemonitor
3. show prometheus & queries
4. show grafana dashboard
