Your task until next week is to add monitoring to your ITU-MiniTwit systems.
For sure, add application monitoring and infrastructure monitoring.
Add all other categories of monitoring after your liking and after what you deem important for your application.

In case you adapt the monitoring example from class (https://github.com/itu-devops/itu-minitwit-monitoring), make sure to turn your Grafana configuration/dashboard into code as illustrated in the given example.
Later, you do not want have to click together your dashboards and visualizations every time you restart the Grafana container. To do so, you may start reading:

Add a link to your monitoring dashboard via a pull request to the file misc_urls.py in https://github.com/itu-devops/MSc_lecture_notes. (Replace the URL "http(s)://<TBA>/" below the comment # Monitoring URL: with your respective URL.
Link either a read-only dashboard or add a user with name and credentials that Helge provides you via the Teams chat channel, so that we can see what you are monitoring and can provide feedback on it in the start of the next session.
