You can configure monitoring and alerting so that you're aware of potential issues before they negatively impact application performance or availability.
Collectd metrics are gathered by default and are fully supported in this release. OpenTelemetry metrics are the future foundation for monitoring, available from GitHub Enterprise Server 3.18 onward.
Note
Collectd metrics are expected to be closing down and then retired in a future release of GitHub Enterprise Server. We recommend that your long-term monitoring strategy includes a migration to OpenTelemetry metrics. See About OpenTelemetry metrics.
Collectd metrics provide a legacy monitoring solution for GitHub Enterprise Server instances that is supported alongside a public preview of OpenTelemetry metrics.
Configure external monitoring systems to collect and analyze collectd metrics from your GitHub Enterprise Server instance.
You can review the metrics that collectd gathers for your GitHub Enterprise Server instance.
GitHub Enterprise Server provides Prometheus-compatible metrics by transforming collectd data. These metrics can be scraped from a dedicated endpoint, allowing integration with observability and monitoring tools for performance insights.
