With the Redis key-value store, your can make applications that fly. And with LogicMonitor, you can make sure they keep delivering the performance your users want. LogicMonitor will detect all your Redis instances automatically (well, you will have to tell it what ports to check, once, if you are using multiple or non-default ports). It will find if they are slaves or masters, alert you if they are down, and let you see performance over time, for all sorts of metrics. You’ll get performance trending graphs and alerts on all the Redis and other server information you need to make sure your systems work correctly.
Just a few of the critical Redis metrics we monitor:
Redis Activity
By tracking your data store’s activity over time, you’ll be able to spot unusual workloads, or create overview graphs combining the activity from multiple databases.
Redis Time since last saved to disk
LogicMonitor will track how long since your Redis data has been saved to disk – so you’ll know at a glance if the data is being saved as you expect, and alerted if it is not.
Redis Keyspace hits
An essential metric for managing the performance of your Redis datastore. By tracking hits and misses, you’ll know how much is being served directly from the store, and the rate of performance.
Redis Change rate
On your Redis master, change is good – so long as it’s flushed to disk. You’ll be able to trend the rate of changes between disk writes, and ensure they are behaving in accord with how you think you’ve configured Redis.
Other Redis stats
LogicMonitor tracks many more statistics about Redis – uptime, CPU Usage, memory usage and fragmentation ratios, and more. And of course, alerts you about things that need your attention – before your customers do.
Redis slave state
As well as all the normal monitoring of Redis instances, LogicMonitor will detect whether an instance is a slave, and track the connection to the Master, and how long since the Master communicated with the slave, alerting you in case of issues.
