Our latest release of eG Enterprise, version 7.2 is accompanied by significant enhancements and new features for our popular eG Enterprise mobile app for iOS and Android. These apps allow administrators to access the eG Enterprise administrator console on the go and receive meaningful alerts and push notifications with click throughs to deep diagnosis rather than dumb text messages.

Metrics, Logs and Traces are often referred to as The Three Pillars of “Observability“. The term observability has been used in control theory to refer to how the state of a system can be inferred from the system’s external outputs. Applied to IT, observability is how the current state of an application can be assessed based on the data it generates. Applications and the IT components they use provide outputs in the form of metrics, events, logs and traces (MELT).

Alerting is a critical feature in monitoring and observability products. The monitoring platform continually tests systems and applications for metrics crossing thresholds, key events in logs and the other warning signs of issues. Alerting ensures that help desks, administrators and IT Ops teams know about issues, or impeding issues and handle communications and remediation rapidly.

In this article, learn how to setup application monitoring for Node.js apps with our open-source solution, SigNoz. Node.js tops the list of most widely used frameworks by developers. Powered by Google's V8 javascript engine, its performance is incredible. Ryan Dahl, the creator of Node.js, wanted to create real-time websites with push capability. On Nov 8, 2009, Node.js was first demonstrated by Dahl at the inaugural European JSconf.
