Observability
LaunchVerse provides out-of-the-box, zero-configuration observability for every deployed application. Because LaunchVerse controls both the Edge Network and the underlying Compute Engine, it can provide deep insights without requiring you to install performance-heavy SDKs or tracking scripts.
The Analytics Map
Navigate to your Project's Observability tab to view the Analytics Map. This real-time dashboard provides:
1. Traffic & Bandwidth
- Total Requests: The total number of HTTP requests hitting your application.
- Bandwidth Usage: The total egress data transferred, broken down by cached vs. uncached.
- Cache Hit Ratio: A critical metric for performance. High cache hit ratios mean your application is responding instantly from the Edge without waking up your backend container.
2. Geographic Distribution
An interactive global heatmap displays exactly where your users are connecting from. This helps you determine if you need to provision backend servers closer to specific regions.
3. Error Tracking
LaunchVerse monitors HTTP status codes and surfaces spikes in 4xx (Client Errors) and 5xx (Server Errors).
4. Engine Health
LaunchVerse also tracks the health of the underlying containers running your code. You can view:
- vCPU Utilization: Is your application CPU-bound?
- RAM Consumption: Are you approaching your memory limits and risking an Out-Of-Memory (OOM) crash?
If your application consistently hits 100% CPU or RAM utilization, the Helix Copilot may proactively suggest upgrading your compute tier or optimizing your code.
