New Features
Monitoring Infrastructure
- Prometheus Integration: Added time-series database for metrics collection and storage
- Grafana Dashboards: Custom visualization dashboards for application and CI/CD metrics
- Alertmanager: Alert handling system with configurable thresholds
- cAdvisor: Container resource monitoring for Docker services
- Pushgateway: Support for short-lived jobs like pipeline stages
Application Enhancements
- Metrics Endpoint: Added
/metricsendpoint to Flask application - Prometheus Client: Integrated Prometheus client library for metric collection
- Request Metrics: Tracking of HTTP requests, durations, and response codes
- Rate Limit Metrics: Monitoring of rate limiting events and remaining capacity
- Application Info Metrics: Uptime, version, and general app information
CI/CD Pipeline Enhancements
- Pipeline Metrics: Track build durations, success rates, and stage performance
- Jenkins Prometheus Plugin: Jenkins metrics exposure via Prometheus plugin
- Metrics Collection Functions: Added utility functions to record pipeline metrics
- Build Status Monitoring: Real-time monitoring of pipeline execution
Dashboards & Visualization
