🌟 Day 20: Exposing Metrics with Spring Boot Actuator and Custom Metric Counters 🌟
Hello UA-cam! 👋
It’s Day 20 of the Spring Boot Advent of Code series, and today we took a deep dive into monitoring our application by exposing metrics through Spring Boot Actuator and adding a custom metric counter! 📊✨
Here’s what we covered in this episode:
✅ Enabling and accessing the /actuator/metrics endpoint to expose application metrics.
✅ Exploring key built-in metrics such as memory usage, request counts, and JVM statistics.
✅ Creating a custom metric counter using Micrometer to track specific application events.
✅ Sending custom metrics to the Actuator endpoint for observability.
Why this matters: Metrics provide valuable insights into your application’s performance and behavior, helping you detect issues early and optimize resource usage.
