Apitally - API analytics, logging & monitoring for Litestar apps

[itssimon]

Hey Litestar community,

I’d like to introduce you to my indie product Apitally, a simple API analytics, logging and monitoring tool for Litestar.

Apitally's key features are:

• Metrics & insights into API usage, errors and performance, for the whole API, each endpoint and individual API consumers.
• Request logging allows users to find and inspect individual API requests and responses.
• Uptime monitoring & alerting notifies users of API problems the moment they happen, whether it's downtime, traffic spikes, errors or performance issues.

The big monitoring platforms (Datadog etc.) can be a bit overwhelming & expensive, particularly for simpler use cases. So Apitally’s key differentiators are simplicity & affordability, with the goal to make it as easy as possible for users to understand all aspects of their API and its consumers.

Apitally integrates with Litestar through a plugin, which captures key metrics for all requests & responses, aggregates them and asynchronously ships them to Apitally’s servers in regular intervals. It's designed with a strong focus on performance and data privacy.

Here's a screenshot of the Apitally dashboard:

If you'd like to try it out, there's a setup guide for Litestar.

Please let me know what you think!
