Monitor the APM Server binary

edit

There are two methods to monitor the APM Server binary. Make sure monitoring is enabled on your Elasticsearch cluster, then configure one of these methods to collect APM Server metrics:

  • Internal collection - Internal collectors send monitoring data directly to your monitoring cluster.
  • Metricbeat collection - Metricbeat collects monitoring data from your APM Server instance and sends it directly to your monitoring cluster.
  • Local collection - Local collection sends select monitoring data directly to the standard indices of your monitoring cluster.
