Ecotone Pulse (Service Dashboard)

Ecotone Pulse service dashboard for monitoring message consumers

View your Error Messages and Replay them when fix directly from the Dashboard

Whenever message fails during asynchronous processing it will kept repeated till the moment it will succeed. However retry strategy with dead letter queue may be set up in order to retry message given amount of times and then move it to the storage for later review and manual retry.

This is where Ecotone Pulse kicks in, as instead of reviewing and replaying the message directly from the application's console, you may do it directly from the UI application. Besides you may connect multiple Ecotone's application to the Pulse Dashboard to have full overview of your whole system.

Ecotone Pulse provide way to control error messages for all your services from one place.
