Metrics
The Metrics page provides aggregated, macro-level performance and health charts for your organization's AI infrastructure. It transforms raw ClickHouse log streams into real-time analytical dashboards for trend monitoring and capacity planning.
Navigate to OBSERVABILITY → Metrics in the Aegis Console to inspect system-wide metric dashboards.
KPI Cards Summary
Four key performance indicators appear across the top of the Metrics panel:
- Total Traces: Total execution count during the time window.
- Fail Rate: Overall failure percentage across all operations.
- Avg Latency: Average response time in milliseconds (
ms). - Total Tokens: Aggregate token consumption across all model calls.
Visual Metric Dashboards
The Metrics dashboard features four interactive analytical charts:
1. Requests & Errors Over Time
- Description: Dual-line time series chart displaying total request throughput (Requests) against error frequency (Errors).
- Use Case: Quickly identify traffic spikes, service outages, or sudden clusters of HTTP 429 / 500 errors.
2. Latency Trend (Avg ms)
- Description: Line trend chart illustrating average response times in milliseconds over time.
- Use Case: Monitor upstream model provider latency (e.g., OpenAI or Vertex AI responsiveness) and detect performance degradation.
3. Token Consumption (Prompt vs Completion)
- Description: Stacked bar chart highlighting Prompt Tokens vs Completion Tokens per time bucket.
- Use Case: Analyze input prompt overhead versus generated output volume to optimize prompt engineering and model pricing strategies.
4. Top Agents by Calls
- Description: Horizontal bar chart ranking agents by total invocation count across the organization.
- Use Case: Identify the most active AI agents and allocate quota or compute resources accordingly.
Filtering by Agent
To inspect metrics scoped to a single agent:
- Append
?agent=<agent_id>to the URL or navigate directly to Agents → Agent Details → Metrics tab. - In agent-scoped view, the Top Agents chart is automatically hidden to focus on the single agent's request, latency, and token trends.
