Dashboards

Dashboards can provide many forms of insight, including usage, metrics, and business intelligence. There are a few technology stacks that can be leveraged to approach this. The ones we have used are mentioned below:

Elastic Stack

The example below is built with Kibana, pulling data from ElasticSearch which is consuming standard out. It is embeded in an iFrame on a public page on our app which we are loading via reverse proxy with our Kibana credentials. (Kibana does not have a public dashboard option).

We collected our documentation on how we are using Kibana on our Elastic Stack here:

Metabase

Metabase is a SQL-focused analytics platform. The example below pulls data from the Postgresql statistics table which our application logs to. Metabase provides a public dashboard option which can be embedded as an iFrame in the application. No reverse proxy is necessary for this one.
