Monitoring Container Apps in Azure

Manage the set of Azure services to Monitor using the Nodinite Container Apps resource.

This page provides documentation about Container App Monitoring options using Nodinite from one or more role-based Monitor Views. Nodinite monitors Container App configuration. You can manage the set of Resource Groups to monitor for configured Container Apps; Remote commands are available as Actions to help you swiftly address reported problems. The Remote Actions are detailed on the [Managing Container App](./Managing%Container App.md) page.

Monitoring Features

  • State Evaluation - Provide state evaluation according to a pre-defined policy.

    If Nodinite can't check your Container App items' state, chances are no one else can use them either.

  • Environments are featured in the Monitoring.
  • The configured Container Apps are monitored
  • Category-based monitoring - The monitored Resources groups by the Nodinite concept of Categories.
  • Share access to individual items from within Nodinite using one or more role-based Monitor Views.

Azure Container App

The Container Apps to monitor manifests within Nodinite as one or more Resources. For example, if you have three Container Apps, you will have three Resources in Nodinite.

  • The Nodinite Resources name is the same as Container App from within the Azure portal.
  • Monitored Container Apps belong to the 'Azure Container App' Category:

Many other Azure related Categories exists as well. Review the Azure Logging and Monitoring Overview user guide.

Each item (presented in Nodinite as a Resource) evaluates with a state (i.e. OK, Warning, Error, Unavailable).

You can override the evaluation process by configuring the Expected State option available for all Nodinite Resources.
