Monitoring serverless functions: FAQ

 

What is serverless monitoring?

Serverless monitoring is the process of tracking the performance, health, and behavior of applications and functions running in a serverless architecture. This involves collecting key metrics such as invocation frequency, latency, and cold starts from cloud providers like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. By gaining visibility into serverless environments, monitoring tools help optimize performance and ensure seamless user experiences.

How does PRTG help with serverless monitoring?

Paessler PRTG provides comprehensive serverless monitoring and metrics such as response time, and resource usage in real-time. PRTG also automates alerts and visualizes data through intuitive dashboards, offering an end-to-end view of serverless applications. With PRTG, you can quickly detect performance bottlenecks and troubleshoot serverless frameworks efficiently.

Can PRTG monitor AWS Lambda functions?

Yes, PRTG supports monitoring AWS Lambda functions. It also offers custom alerting and visualization of AWS Lambda application performance in real-time. It enables users to keep a close watch on their serverless workflows and ensure optimal performance of their serverless applications.

How does PRTG assist with troubleshooting performance issues in serverless applications?

PRTG automates alerts based on performance thresholds and visualizes custom metrics like latency and resource usage in easy-to-read dashboards. By continuously tracking serverless functions, PRTG helps identify root causes of performance issues, such as bottlenecks in API Gateway or memory limitations in AWS Lambda. The system’s observability features make troubleshooting fast and efficient, helping DevOps teams quickly debug and optimize serverless applications.

What is a sensor in PRTG?

In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, for example the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, or the free space on a disk drive. On average, you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.

We asked: would you recommend PRTG? Over 95% of our customers say yes!

Paessler conducted trials in over 600 IT departments worldwide to tune its network monitoring software closer to the needs of sysadmins. The result of the survey: over 95% of the participants would recommend PRTG – or already have.
