Apache HTTP server (HTTPD) metrics

Collect metrics from Apache’s HTTPD server

status: beta role: daemon role: sidecar delivery: at-least-once egress: batch state: stateless output: metrics

Requirements

The Apache Status module must be enabled.

How it works

Context

By default, the apache_metrics source augments events with helpful context keys.

State

This component is stateless, meaning its behavior is consistent across each input.
