@instana-integration/nodejs
The Instana integration package used to support Node.js monitoring. Once you import this package into your Instana environment, you will be able to monitor Node.js runtime and the applications on various aspects by checking the dashboards, alerts, etc. included in this integration package.
Dashboards
Below are the dashboards that are currently supported by this integration package.
| Dashboard Title | Description |
|---|---|
| Node.js Runtime Metrics | Instana custom dashboard that displays runtime metrics for Node.js application |
Node.js Runtime Metrics
Semantic Conventions for Node.js Runtime Metrics
The Node.js runtime metrics are obtained by OpenTelemetry auto-instrumentation:
const {RuntimeNodeInstrumentation} = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation-runtime-node')
const sdk = new NodeSDK({
...
instrumentations: [
new RuntimeNodeInstrumentation({
monitoringPrecision: 5000,
})
],
...
});
sdk.start()Below are the Node.js runtime metrics that are currently supported by this integration package.
| Metrics Name | Description | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| v8js.gc.duration | Garbage collection duration by kind, one of major, minor, incremental or weakcb. | s |
| memory.heap.limit | Total heap memory size pre-allocated. | Byte |
| memory.heap.used | Heap memory size allocated. | Byte |
| memory.heap.space.available_size | Heap space available size. | Byte |
| memory.heap.space.physical_size | Committed size of a heap space. | Byte |
| eventloop.delay.min | Event loop minimum delay. | s |
| eventloop.delay.max | Event loop maximum delay. | s |
| eventloop.delay.mean | Event loop mean delay. | s |
| eventloop.delay.stddev | Event loop standard deviation delay. | s |
Resource Attributes for Node.js Application
Below are the resource attributes that are currently supported by this integration package.
| Attribute Key | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| service.name | string | This attribute is used to describe the entity name. |
| service.instance.id | string | This attribute is used to describe the entity ID of the current object. |
Installation and Usage
With Instana CLI for integration package management, you can manage the lifecycle of this package such as downloading the package and importing it into Instana.
Downloading the package:
$ stanctl-integration download --package @instana-integration/nodejsImporting the package into Instana:
$ stanctl-integration import --package @instana-integration/nodejs \
--server $INSTANA_SERVER \
--token $API_TOKEN \
--set servicename=$SERVICE_NAME \
--set serviceinstanceid=$SERVICE_INSTANCE_ID- INSTANA_SERVER: This is the base URL of a tenant unit, e.g. https://test-example.instana.io. This is the same URL that is used to access the Instana user interface.
- API_TOKEN: Requests against the Instana API require valid API tokens. The API token can be generated via the Instana user interface. For more information, please refers to Instana documentation.
- SERVICE_NAME: Logical name of the service.
- SERVICE_INSTANCE_ID: The string ID of the service instance. The ID helps to distinguish instances of the same service that exist at the same time (e.g. instances of a horizontally scaled service).
