System Metrics

This page documents Prometheus metrics that reflect the overall uptime and availability status of key Yellowbrick system components, including the Lime service and the platform as a whole.

Purpose

System-level metrics are essential for tracking service health, restart behavior, and uptime baselines. Specifically, they help:

• Monitor whether the system is currently marked as “up” or “down”
• Track the total uptime duration of services (e.g., Lime)
• Detect unexpected restarts or prolonged downtimes
