Metrics
Understand the application metrics available in Convoy Cloud.
Convoy Cloud collects infrastructure-level metrics for all your applications using Prometheus. Metrics are available in your Grafana workspace.
Available metrics
CPU
- CPU usage — actual CPU consumed over time
- CPU requests — your configured allocation
- Useful for right-sizing your resource configuration
Memory
- Memory usage — actual memory consumed
- Memory requests and limits — your configured allocation
- Useful for detecting memory leaks or OOM crashes
Network
- Network I/O — bytes sent and received by your application
Pod health
- Pod restart count — how many times your application has restarted
- Container status — running, waiting, or terminated
- High restart counts usually indicate health check failures or crashes
Viewing metrics
- Click Observability in the sidebar.
- Click Open Grafana.
- Open the Application Metrics dashboard.
- Use the application dropdown to filter and adjust the time range.
See Observability overview for how access is provisioned.
Metrics retention
Prometheus metrics are retained for 15 days.
Resource usage on the dashboard
The main Convoy Cloud dashboard shows a workspace summary:
- CPU usage — total CPU consumed across all apps at the current moment (informational — useful for understanding your billing, not a hard limit)
- Memory usage — total memory consumed across all apps (informational)
- App count — deployed applications vs. your plan's app ceiling (3 on Free, 10 on Business — this is the enforced limit)
