I have a question about metrics. My boss is looking for a way to track our application and database uptime metrics. I already do simple connection checks to the databases and applications, but that really is not a good indicator. The application/database could be down, but the IP address would still be available. I was wondering if/how anyone in the community is using Hobbit to watch/monitor application/database uptime metrics. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Write an ext script that mimics a user interacting with the application, then use that to measure availability. This is trivial for most databases and web applications.
