# 监控方案

Elasticsearch 作为一个分布式系统，监控自然是重中之重。Elasticsearch 本身提供了非常完善的，由浅及深的各种性能数据接口。和数据读写检索接口一样，采用 RESTful 风格。我们可以直接使用 curl 来获取数据，编写监控程序，也可以使用一些现成的监控方案。通常这些方案也是通过接口读取数据，解析 JSON，渲染界面。

本章会先介绍一些常用的监控接口，以及其响应数据的含义。然后再介绍几种常用的开源和商业 Elasticsearch 监控产品。

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://hezhiqiang.gitbook.io/elkstack/elasticsearch/monitor.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
