# Standard Observability

Viewing Standard logs, metrics, and resource health for your Services and Hosts.

**Standard Observability** provides basic monitoring for Services and Containers, including logs, metrics, and cloud spend.

DuploCloud also offers an add-on observability service called the Advanced Observability Suite (AOS). For daily operations using the AOS, see [Advanced Observability Suite (AOS)](/docs/automation-platform/workshops/duplocloud-101-for-aws/daily-operations-using-duplocloud/3.-observability/advanced-observability-suite-aos.md).

## Prerequisites

* **Set up the Standard Observability Suite** for your Infrastructure. For instructions on enabling logging and metrics, see [Setup for the Standard Observability Suite](https://docs.duplocloud.com/docs/automation-platform/diagnostics-overview/standard-observability-suite/setup).

## Standard Dashboard

### Accessing the Standard Dashboard

1. Navigate to the Standard Observability dashboard:
   * For Administrators, navigate to: **Administrator** → **Observability** → **Standard** → **Dashboard**
   * For Tenant users, navigate to: **Observability** → **Standard** → **Dashboard**

The Dashboard shows a high-level overview of your Tenant’s cloud resources and usage including:

* **Cloud Spend:** Current month and top services by cost.
* **Resources:** Counts of Services, Containers, Databases, Buckets, and any Faults.
* **Kubernetes / Docker:** Deployed Services and Containers.
* **Logs:** Access and view logs collected from Services and Containers.
* **Metrics:** Monitor CPU, memory, and other performance metrics for your resources.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

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

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.duplocloud.com/docs/automation-platform/workshops/duplocloud-101-for-aws/daily-operations-using-duplocloud/3.-observability/standard-observability.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

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.
