Observability Backends
StableHow metrics and logs work in SPG99 and why Prometheus- and Loki-compatible backends matter for Console.
Updated: March 5, 2026
Observability in SPG99 consists of two layers:
- platform services publish metrics and logs;
- separate backends store and serve this data to Console and operators.
Metrics
Platform components publish Prometheus-compatible metrics. This matters to the user because these metrics power:
- graphs in Console;
- operational dashboards;
- most fast diagnostics.
Logs
The logging layer makes it possible to:
- view live tail;
- search by substring;
- export fragments for support;
- quickly distinguish an application problem from a database lifecycle problem.
What this means in practice
If you use managed SPG99:
- metrics and logs are already built into the platform;
- Console relies on this layer for the Monitoring section;
- you do not need to assemble minimal observability from scratch.
If you deploy SPG99 yourself, you must provide compatible metrics and logging backends; otherwise Monitoring will work only partially.
In other words, observability in SPG99 is not something you “add later,” but an important part of the operational model of the platform.
