What is this platform?

The Front-Commerce Cloud Monitoring Platform offers a comprehensive solution for monitoring your Front-Commerce Cloud projects.
This guide will walk you through the process of accessing the platform and viewing the maintained dashboard.

Please note that as a Viewer, your access is limited to viewing the provided dashboard, and you cannot make any changes or customizations.

Why this platform?

First, let's make it clear: we do our best to ensure you don't need to actively use this platform.

Our support and infrastructure teams are always improving our platform and monitoring any alert to ensure that your storefront is online and provide a performant experience to end-users.

We alert you in case of outages and use pro-active monitoring if we detect issues.

However, you might want to have more autonomy and a more detailed view in order to troubleshoot and qualify production incidents. You may also find this platform useful to monitor performance improvements delivered in production. It could also be useful to understand how your application scales with traffic (real traffic, or stress tests).
