Micrometer provides a simple facade over the instrumentation clients for the most popular observability systems, allowing you to instrument your JVM-based application code without vendor lock-in. Think SLF4J, but for observability. Micrometer provides vendor-neutral interfaces for timers, gauges, counters, distribution summaries, and long task timers with a dimensional data model that, when paired with a dimensional monitoring system, allows for efficient access to a particular named metric with the ability to drill down across its dimensions. Out-of-the-box instrumentation of caches, the class loader, garbage collection, processor utilization, thread pools, and more tailored to actionable insight. Micrometer is the instrumentation library powering the delivery of application observability from Spring Boot applications.

Features

  • Support for popular observability systems
  • Contains built-in support for AppOptics, Azure Monitor, Netflix Atlas, CloudWatch, Datadog, Dynatrace, Elastic, Ganglia, Graphite, Humio
  • Through Micrometer Observation and Micrometer Tracing you can ship your spans via OpenZipkin Brave or OpenTelemetry tracers to different backends
  • Micrometer allows you to instrument your code with dimensional metrics, spans with a vendor-neutral interface and decide on the observability system as a last step
  • Instrumenting your core library code with Micrometer allows the libraries to be included in applications that ship data to different backends
  • Micrometer is the instrumentation library powering the delivery of application observability from Spring Boot applications
