Every day there is around 200 users, and it generates me some ramen profit.

Users report that my web app is sometimes slow.

I know that there are many plausible causes. But before I jump into the rabbit hole, I want to ask for your kind advice.

What is your mental framework to deal with such a problem?

FYI, my app:

- is built with NodeJS

- ran on a cloud server with 2 core CPU, 2G Ram, and 1M bandwidth

- is a CRUD app

I have learned about building apps from the web, mostly from Udemy and Youtube. Someone has told me to not worry about performance. `Make it work, then make it better`.

Now that I have learned how to make it work, how can I learn how to make it better? Do you have any links or materials to share?

Thanks a lot.","time":1640587557,"title":"Ask HN: Question from self-taugh developer, my app is slow.

Maybe some other business KPIs, but the emphasis is on building "graphs that the operational team should be looking at on ~hourly basis to prioritize fixes and spot systemic regressions."

Ideally it would integrate with Pagerduty, in that it'd be easy to express "page me if if X is above Y."

My preference is that I have my own cron job that captures the metrics from our queues/databases and pushes them to the tool via a ~REST API but I could be convinced of a different method.

So far the only thing I can think of is Datadog, specifically https://www.datadoghq.com/solutions/real-time-business-intelligence/

Anything else I should be looking at? Or any other tips?","time":1639889719,"title":"Ask HN: Tool for dashboards / alerting on operational health metrics?","type":"story"}]]
