Web plugins
As we know from Chapter 6, Managing Your RabbitMQ Server, the RabbitMQ management plugin provides an HTTP-based API for management and monitoring of the RabbitMQ server with a browser-based web user interface and command-line tool called rabbitmqadmin. The management plugin has a lot of monitoring features, as listed here:
- Monitors queue length and message rates
- Monitors Erlang processes
- Monitors memory use
- Monitor connections and exchanges
- Monitor users and their permissions
The following screenshot describes the dashboard screen of the RabbitMQ management web UI, where we can see number of connections, channels, exchanges, queues, and current consumers:
