Orkes Conductor Dashboard - Metrics & Observability

The Orkes Conductor Dashboard gives a quick overview of the metrics & alerts on your Conductor console. It provides a centralized intuitive interface to track and get insights on the behavior and performance of tasks and workflows that can aid in troubleshooting errors.

Orkes Conductor uses the popular platform Prometheus for recording a rich set of metrics that will be available automatically in your deployment and pushes the metrics to Grafana/Datadog on request to dedicated clusters.

Accessing Dashboard from Conductor Console

In this document, we’ve included a sample dashboard set using Prometheus & Grafana.

  1. To access your dashboard, navigate to Metrics from your Conductor console. If you cannot see this option on your Conductor console, please reach out to our team.
