In April, we announced the launch of our Insights & Metrics panel. Thanks to your feedback, we have diligently improved the experience and are proud to announce new features and improvements today.
Your site is vital to your business. That’s why you partner with WordPress VIP. Application Insights & Metrics gives you the visibility and tools you need to accurately assess the performance and stability of your applications.
Here is a short demo of what you can expect using Insights and Metrics today.
We are excited about the visual polish and user interface improvements we’ve made to the dashboard, but are just as excited about some new features.
You may have noticed the comparison metrics in the demo. These allow you to understand how your current performance is trending at a glance.
We’ve added new metrics:
- Application Memory and CPU usage per HTTP request metrics to give you even more insight into how your application is performing.
- Your database size over time, in addition to its current size.
- Terminated MySQL queries that were hidden from view before, but now can be tracked.
- A view of 500 errors per 1,000 requests serves as an early warning sign of application trouble.
We are also bringing these insights into other parts of the VIP Dashboard. The Database Backup page now shows the total database size, and every deployment page includes a response time graph to quickly assess if the code change affected performance.
To access these insights, log in to your account on the VIP Dashboard and select “Performance” then “Insights & Metrics” for any application.
Read our documentation on the Insights & Metrics panel.
And we aren’t done yet. We are in the midst of a closed beta of anomaly detection to highlight when important metrics move beyond historical norms. Stay tuned to this space for an announcement of the open beta in a few weeks.
