Flask MonitoringDashboard

Automatically monitor the evolving performance of Flask/Python web services.

Overview

The Flask Monitoring Dashboard is an extension for Flask applications that offers several functionalities to monitor and analyze the performance of endpoints and requests. With little effort from the Flask developer, it provides insights into endpoint utilization, profiling of requests and endpoints, collection of additional information about outliers, and the ability to collect extra information about the Flask application itself. The dashboard is automatically added to an existing Flask application and can be easily accessed through a default endpoint.

Features

  • Monitor the performance and utilization: Easily track which endpoints are processing a significant number of requests and measure their speed. Provides information on the evolving performance of endpoints across different versions.
  • Profile requests and endpoints: Track and store the execution path of every request, allowing developers to identify the functions in their code that take the most time to execute. Provides an overview of which functions are used in each endpoint by merging all requests for that specific endpoint.
  • Collect extra information about outliers: Identify and store information about requests that take significantly longer to process than regular requests. Includes additional details such as stack trace, request values, request headers, and request environment.
  • Collect additional information about Flask applications: Configure custom queries to collect specific information about the Flask application, such as the number of registered users. This information is collected periodically and can be accessed through the dashboard.
