CHALLENGES
Our client’s primary service revolves around the meticulous
management and proactive monitoring of blockchain nodes for
their customers.
This encompasses the consistent validation of endpoint health,
ensuring that all nodes are functioning optimally, providing real-
time visualizations of node status and performance metrics, and
analyzing resource utilization metrics like CPU, memory, and disk
space to address issues proactively.

Our client’s primary service revolves around the meticulous
management and proactive monitoring of blockchain nodes for
their customers.
This encompasses the consistent validation of endpoint health,
ensuring that all nodes are functioning optimally, providing realtime visualizations of node status and performance metrics, and
analyzing resource utilization metrics like CPU, memory, and disk
space to address issues proactively.
To address these challenges, our team developed a comprehensive
monitoring solution leveraging custom exporters, Prometheus, and
Grafana.
The implementation of this solution followed a structured approach:
- Identifying the key metrics and defining the data collection and
visualization strategy. - Building the custom exporters and configuring
Prometheus and Grafana. - Rolling out the exporters across all nodes and setting up the
Prometheus and Grafana infrastructure. - Continuously monitor the performance of the solution and make
iterative improvements based on feedback and observed performance.
BENEFITS
The deployment of the custom monitoring solution brought
significant benefits to the client:
1. Enhanced Visibility: Both the technical team and customers
gained real-time insights into the status and performance of their
blockchain nodes.
2. Improved Reliability: The proactive monitoring and alerting
mechanisms reduced downtime and improved the overall
reliability of the nodes.
3. Resource Optimization: Detailed performance metrics enabled
better resource management, reducing costs and improving
efficiency.
4. Customer Satisfaction: With clear visibility and timely support,
customer satisfaction and trust in Rapid Node’s services
increased significantly.
