Ensure API performance and security with real-time observability
Monitor and optimize API health with key metrics, and quickly resolve issues by tracing them to their root causes.
Faster issue detection and resolution
Reduce your mean-time-to-detect (MTTD) and mean-time-to-resolve (MTTR) with real-time monitoring, API access logs, and deep, targeted traces — minimizing downtime and protecting the customer experience.
Improve operational efficiency
Stay on top of traffic patterns, error rates, and bottlenecks to optimize your API performance and infrastructure, strengthen security, and reduce unnecessary resource usage and costs.
Make informed, strategic API decisions
Make smarter product and business decisions with deep API insights that guide when to scale, invest, or deprecate APIs.
API platform-wide monitoring and observability
Fine-tune your API performance and strategy with granular, contextual API insights across your API estate.
Multi-Runtime, Multi-Protocol
Create an observability layer for APIs, AI, eventing, and microservices
- Build analytics and observability dashboards for API, AI, event streaming, and microservices traffic.
- Control AI and LLM costs with dashboards that track LLM token consumption.
- Automate observability by enforcing Gateway observability policies globally — ensuring every API transaction is seen.
Application API Metrics
Real-time API monitoring to power excellent customer experiences
- Drive unified visibility into API performance and health across your organization.
- Detect anomalies in request volume, error rates, average latency, and potential security risks in real-time.
- Drill into key metrics with interactive charts and time-based filters to accelerate issue resolution.
- Uncover usage trends over time with custom reports to inform capacity planning and performance tuning.
API Product Metrics
Continuously refine your API program with usage insights
- Analyze and/or compare the request count and throughput of specific APIs, applications, consumers, control planes, and more.
- Identify high-leverage APIs by monitoring API usage metrics via Dev Portal(s).
Active Tracing
Pull highly detailed telemetry when you need it with Active Tracing
- Start targeted tracing sessions on gateway nodes and view them in Konnect’s built-in trace viewers.
- Pinpoint the root cause of an issue with visibility into the entire request-response API flow, plugin execution, and Kong’s internal processing.
- Generate component-level telemetry data to gain a deeper understanding of your services’ performance, dependencies, and potential bottlenecks.
- Refine your configuration to prevent issues from repeating.
Logs
Debug faster with API and Gateway logs
- Filter and inspect API requests with an intuitive user interface in Konnect Analytics.
- Grasp popular endpoints, peak usage times, and user behavior to enhance API reliability and ensure the proper security controls are in place.
- Simplify initial investigations into errors with Kong-contextualized insights, allowing faster navigation to gateway configurations, consumers, and more.
Ecosystem-friendly
Build the API observability strategy that suits your needs
- View observability and analytics dashboards directly in Konnect and/or push metrics to your favorite enterprise observability solutions, such as Dynatrace, Datadog, Prometheus, and more.
- Send request and response logs to various third-party systems, such as Kafka, Syslog, and more.
