# Monitoring

Covers health signals, throughput, and delivery monitoring.

### What Is Monitored

IntelFactor monitors:

```mermaid
flowchart LR
  EDGE[Edge services] --> MET[Metrics]
  EDGE --> LOG[Logs]
  EDGE --> TR[Traces]

  MET --> MSTORE[Metrics store]
  LOG --> LSTORE[Log store]
  TR --> APM[Tracing/APM]

  MSTORE --> DASH[Dashboards]
  LSTORE --> ALERT[Alert rules]
  APM --> ALERT
  ALERT --> ONCALL[Ops notifications]
```

* Edge node health
* Processing throughput
* Resource utilization
* Event delivery status

### Alerts

Alerts are generated when signals indicate abnormal or degraded conditions.

Alerting behavior varies by deployment and environment.
