Datadog has introduced a new integration to monitor PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) performance, which is widely used with web servers like Apache and NGINX. This integration provides a built-in screenboard to display metrics such as listen queue, active processes, and slow logs, allowing users to visualize and correlate these metrics with other application data. Users can also make comments, discuss specific metrics with team members, and set up custom service checks and monitors for their FPM instances. The integration supports tracking multiple FPM instances for redundancy and failover, recognizing tags associated with server instances to offer a comprehensive overview. Additionally, users can pinpoint when FPM is underpowered and adjust configurations accordingly. Datadog offers a customizable PHP-FPM service check, which can be easily set up to monitor the status of FPM instances, with the option to receive alerts based on specific criteria. A free 14-day trial is available for users to explore the benefits of this integration.
