Use the Gloo operations dashboard to monitor the health of your Gloo Mesh Gateway environment, such as the average translation and reconciliation time for the Gloo management server, or translation errors that occurred. When you install a Gloo product, the built-in Prometheus server is configured with default alerts that are automatically populated into the operations dashboard when they occur.

To learn more about the dashboard and preview how it looks like, see Operations dashboard.
