In this series, we’ve introduced key HashiCorp Vault metrics and logs to watch, and looked at some ways to retrieve that information with built-in monitoring tools. Vault is made up of many moving parts, including the core, secrets engine, and audit devices. To get a full picture of Vault health and performance, it’s important to track all these components, along with the resources they consume from their underlying infrastructure.

In Part 1, we looked at the key metrics for monitoring the health and performance of your HashiCorp Vault deployment. We also discussed how Vault server and audit logs can give you additional context for troubleshooting issues ranging from losses in availability to policy misconfiguration. Now, we’ll show you how to access this data with tools that ship with Vault.

Technical issues, such as fatal crashes, are one of the biggest reasons why users uninstall mobile applications, so quickly identifying and resolving issues is vital for user retention. This can be challenging, particularly in the Android market, which has a wide variety of mobile devices and versions of the Android operating system. You need visibility into every issue so you can determine which crashes impact your application the most and efficiently resolve them.
