Understanding Insights Dashboards for Advanced Monitoring

When you enable Insights Advanced Monitoring, you have access to the rich Insights dashboards for Datadog that provide you with visualizations of the monitors and metrics. You can use these dashboards as is, clone them to create customized dashboards, or even create your own dashboards using the provided ecosystem of monitors and metrics that are provided with Insights.

All the Insights dashboards provided are organized in a similar manner. Before you look at the details of each dashboard, we recommend that you review the information in Insights Advanced Monitoring to have a basic understanding of how the Insights dashboards function.

These are the Insights dashboards that SAP provides:

Each dashboard has a version associated with it so that you can understand what changes occur between releases. For more information about the releases, see About Insights Dashboards for Datadog Releases.

For an understanding of how the metrics are collected and visualized, see the following topics:

For a list of available metrics that can be collected, see the following topic:

About Insights Dashboards for Datadog Releases

Each Insights dashboards for Datadog that SAP provides in Datadog has a three-segment version number with the notation X.Y.Z (e.g., 1.4.5). For more information about updates to the Insights dashboards, see the release notes at SAP Integration Suite, Advanced Event Mesh Releases.

The version information for a given Insights dashboards might be useful to you if you've cloned one of them and want to see what changes might be useful to port to your cloned dashboard, want to understand backward compatibility of your cloned dashboards, or simply want to see what has changed and what new monitoring capabilities are available. For the version number, each segment increments as follows:

  • X — Incompatible release changes that include:
    • Functional changes to dashboards that may include the context and purpose of a dashboard.
    • May also include changes that require a specific dependency or prerequisite to the dashboard that are no longer backwards compatible with previous iterations of a dashboard.
  • Y — Major release changes that include:
    • Significant changes to the dashboards that may include additions, changes, or deletions of the visualizations utilized for a widgets.
    • May also include backward-compatible changes to monitors, and metrics shown on a dashboard.
  • Z — Minor release changes that include:
    • Visual changes to dashboard that can include layout, the metrics or monitor used, and widgets utilized.
    • May include minor changes to text shown or editorial changes.
    • All minor changes are backwards-compatible with previous dashboards.

To determine the version of a dashboard, click the name of the dashboard near the top, and the version is listed at the end of the brief description as shown in the following diagram:

About Last Values in Metrics in Insights Dashboards

It is important to note that if the title of a widget in the dashboard is prefixed by the word ‘last’, the value shown is the last value collected by the metric at the end of the selected timeframe. For example, you selected the last hour as the timeframe, and the Last Services metric shows a value of 2. That value comes from the last time the metric was updated for that one hour time frame. The value is not an average of the timeframe, or derived from a timeframe's total.

Estate Overview

The Estate Overview dashboard provides a snapshot of key metrics and monitors to help you quickly identify areas that require attention across your estate.

This dashboard gives you an overall sense of service usage and answer questions such as:

  • How is the event broker service performing?
  • Is there anything I need to focus on that could be a problem?
  • How can I get to the information that I need to identify and resolve availability issues?

Operations and Integration teams use this as a starting point to get an understanding what's occurring in their deployment.

Details of the Estate Overview Dashboard

The top section is a brief overview of key information from across of your account for SAP Integration Suite, advanced event mesh, including alerts that you may wish to act on, current resources, and key trends with top services for message rates, spooled messages, and connections/active accounts. It includes the following information:

Last values are from the end of a selected timeframe. For more information, see About Last Values in Metrics in Insights Dashboards.

  • Metric Monitor Counts & Status: A monitor summary widget that represents the number of metric-based monitors (not the number of alerts or warnings) watching the event broker services in your estate. The Alert/Warn number is the number of metric-based monitors that have Alerts or Warning states, and OK is the number of monitors in the OK state. The table that’s below the Alert/Warn and OK numbers is a list of monitors and the count of the instances of that metric-based monitor triggered in various states - Alert, Warn, OK.
  • Metric Alert Overview: An event timeline widget that shows a graph of the alerts in your estate in the selected interval for metric-based monitors.

    The Alert/Warn number is the number of monitors that have Alerts or Warning states, and OK is the number of monitors in the OK state.

    If a monitor has even one instance triggered by a critical event, it will raise an ‘Alert’ level event and be counted in the “Alert” bucket. If a warning has been flagged, the monitor will be counted there. The ‘OK’ number represents the number of monitors that have no instances triggered as warnings or alerts. Clicking on the numbers or the rows will take you to the Monitors section in Datadog filtered down to the selection you clicked on to help you investigate what you are seeing on the dashboard.

The status of the monitoring node for event broker services and Standard type services are not shown in this view. For each Enterprise type service, you see the primary and backup event brokers grouped by service and a color-coded status of the HA readiness for each event broker. The following colors reflect the HA readiness of an event broker:
      • Green: Status is OK. If all event brokers are this color, High-Availability readiness (redundancy) is available (that is, it is ready to accept failovers).
      • Orange:Event broker is not ready to accept failovers and High-Availability readiness is not available (or redundancy is degraded).
      It's important to note that degraded redundancy doesn't impact service operation. The operational status of a service is monitored by SAP.

Capacity Overview

The Capacity Overview dashboard provides a strategic view of your estate resource utilization. This dashboard assesses the current values, high water marks for the selected periods, and shows trends over time to better analyze how close your usage is to the limits of your event broker service and enable better planning.

This dashboard gives you an overall sense of service usage and answer questions such as:

  • Am I running close to limits?

  • Am I over allocating resources?

Operations, Integration, and Application Support teams often use this dashboard to help analyze current capacity, and identify potential increases and where allocated resources are being under utilized.

Details of the Capacity Overview Dashboard

When this dashboard is not filtered by service, some of the trend line charts show the percentage utilization by service as specified in the titles - one line per service.

Each object on the dashboard can be expanded to see more context. You can interact with the various widgets

The top section is a brief overview of metrics that are useful to understand the capacity of your estate. On this dashboard, there are percentage utilization metrics that reflect the current value as a percent of the limit for that resource for your selected service. The line graphs have thresholds showing at 80% (the warn threshold for most monitors) and 95% (the alert threshold for most monitors).
