Description

A plugin for monitoring the health and performance of one or more Dropwizard applications over http using the applications' /healthcheck and /metrics administrative endpoints.

This plugin allows you to easily receive alerts via NR whenever your Dropwizard application enters into an unhealthy state. Additionally, you can optionally configure NR to send alerts whenever the rate of 4xx responses, 5xx responses, logged errors, and/or JVM heap utilization exceeds configured thresholds. Thresholds can be configured on a per application basis within NR.

The NR dashboard for this plugin provides historical views of your application's health and performance so you can easily see what went wrong and when.

Multiple Dropwizard applications can be monitored from the same plugin instance. The plugin polls all configured Dropwizard applications every minute and publishes the appropriate data into NR. The plugin handles failures to connect to or receive a response from a Dropwizard application.
