It provides charts, graphs, and alerting capabilities when connected to supported data sources such as Prometheus. [Grafana](https://github.com/grafana/grafana) can be deployed using [**Docker or Docker Compose.**](/v1/docs/deploy-with-docker-docker-compose) The Grafana dashboards for Rocket.Chat visualize several application metrics, including: - **General totals**: Users online/away, DDP users, and activity differences over time. - **Metrics**: Request counts and total size per instance. - **Node.js**: Active handles, requests, event loop lag, heap usage, and garbage collection metrics. - **DDP Rate Limiter**: Rate limits by method, type, user ID, and connection ID. - **Rocket.Chat Data**: Messages sent, user presence, sessions, oplog activity, push queue, total users, total rooms, and notification metrics. - **Meteor**: Method execution time, total method calls, and calls per minute. - **Subscriptions**: Subscription processing time and calls per minute. - **Callbacks & Hooks**: Callback and hook execution metrics and frequency. - **REST API**: API execution time and call rate. ## Grafana dashboards The [**Rocket.Chat Metrics GitHub repository**](https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Metrics?tab=readme-ov-file) **is deprecated**.
