πŸ”€ Event Flow Monitor

The Event Flow Monitor provides real-time visibility into telemetry throughput, pipeline performance, and error states across configured sources, transforms, and destinations.

Event flow

🧭 Overview & Controls

The Event Flow interface offers direct insight into the health and volume of individual pipeline stages.

Controls include:

  • Show System Components β€” Toggles the display of internal telemetry pipelines (components prefixed with 00_), such as appliance health monitors and internal logging services.

  • Filter Components β€” Real-time text search across component names, types, and implementations.

  • Refresh β€” Manually triggers an immediate data refresh from the event monitor API.

  • Stream Status Badge β€” Highlights whether the pipeline metrics stream is currently live or offline.

πŸ“Š Pipeline Metrics Breakdown

The monitor displays data across five key metrics for every active pipeline element:

  • Component ID β€” The unique identifier assigned to the pipeline component.

  • Category β€” The stage within the processing pipeline (Source, Transform, or Sink/Destination).

  • Implementation β€” The underlying driver or protocol powering the component (e.g., syslog, remap, elasticsearch, kafka).

  • Throughput (Events) β€” The total count of events processed and forwarded by the component.

  • Errors β€” Total operational and delivery errors encountered. Components encountering issues are highlighted to streamline troubleshooting.

πŸ” Performance Diagnostics

Administrators can sort table columns to rapidly diagnose bottlenecks:

  • Isolating Failures β€” Sort by the Errors column to bring failing sources or destinations to the top.

  • Locating Bottlenecks β€” Compare throughput across sequential transforms to locate filtering drop-offs or processing lag.

  • Auditing Load β€” Sort by Throughput to identify high-volume feeds requiring load balancing or multiplexing.
