If you are looking for a cloud-based platform to deploy your NestJS application, check out Mau, our official platform for deploying NestJS applications on AWS. Mau makes deployment straightforward and fast, requiring just a few simple steps:
$ npm install -g @nestjs/mau
$ mau deployWith Mau, you can deploy your application in just a few clicks, allowing you to focus on building features rather than managing infrastructure.
In production applications, observability is essential for understanding how your system behaves, detecting issues early, and maintaining reliable performance.
NestJS Observe automatically instruments your NestJS application, giving you deep visibility into your system with minimal setup:
- Distributed tracing: Follow requests across services and understand how they flow through your system.
- Waterfall analysis: Visualize request execution and identify slow operations, bottlenecks, and unexpected delays.
- Performance analysis: Analyze application performance in real time and quickly pinpoint areas that need optimization.
- Metrics: Track key application and infrastructure metrics to understand system health and performance trends.
- Logging: Centralize and correlate logs with traces and other telemetry to make debugging easier.
- Error tracking: Detect errors quickly and investigate their root causes with the surrounding context.
- SLA monitoring: Track service-level objectives and identify when your application is approaching or exceeding defined thresholds.
- Alarms and alerts: Set up alerts for critical errors, performance degradation, SLA violations, and other anomalies so your team can react quickly.
