Today, we are exploring the Health Report, your key to staying ahead of application performance trends.

This feature provides an actionable overview of your application health, helping you make data driven decisions to improve and optimize it. Let's dive in!

The Health Report consolidates key metrics and insights from Blackfire monitoring and Blackfire builds, the synthetic monitoring, into a single easy to read overview. It's designed for a specific environment and highlights trends over a seven day period, comparing them to the previous week.

Here are some of the key metrics you will find in the Health Report:

  • Response time trends: monitor how your application responds to traffic changes.
  • Request and error counts: stay on top of the user interaction and spot potential issues.
  • Impactful recommendations based on the recent profiles: get tailored advice to address bottlenecks and opportunities for improvement.
  • Transaction and service analysis: identify the most impactful or gradually degrading transaction and service calls.

Plus, it includes a summary of tests and builds showing you which critical transactions are not yet protected by performance tests.

To fully unlock the potential of the Health Report, you need to have Blackfire Monitoring enabled on your environment and we recommend enabling periodic builds as well. This ensures a comprehensive view of your performance metrics and trends.

Some advanced metric, like long-term trends require up to six weeks of data collection. So, the longer you use Blackfire monitoring and builds, the more accurate and insightful your Health Report becomes.

Every Monday, you'll receive a summary of your Health Report directly into your inbox. These updates are sent at 9am based on the time zone configured in your environment settings.

And don't worry, you can customize your subscription preferences for these reports anytime.
