Nginx monitoring from stub_status to Nginx Plus
Atatus Nginx monitoring tools capture requests per second, upstream latency, 4xx/5xx error rates, worker performance, and connection stats. Nginx access and error log parsing, Nginx Plus API integration, and correlated APM traces in one platform.

Every Nginx signal that matters in production
From OSS Nginx stub_status to Nginx Plus API — Atatus Nginx monitoring tools correlate reverse-proxy performance with the services behind them.
Nginx Performance Monitoring
Track active connections, requests per second, request duration percentiles, 4xx/5xx response rates, and upstream latency per route.
Nginx Worker & Connection Stats
Monitor worker process utilization, keep-alive connections, active vs idle workers, and connection acceptance rates.
Nginx Access Log Analysis
Parse combined, main, and custom log formats. Query by status code, path, user agent, upstream backend, and response time. Full-text search included.
Nginx Plus API Integration
For Nginx Plus deployments, consume the /api endpoint for upstream groups, server zones, resolver zones, SSL, and cache statistics.
Error Log Correlation
Nginx error logs correlated with APM traces and application errors from upstream services. Debug 502/504 outages in minutes.
Capacity Planning
Historical trends on worker utilization, connection growth, and request volume. Right-size your Nginx fleet before saturation.
Why DevOps teams run Atatus for Nginx monitoring
Works with stock Nginx and Nginx Plus
For OSS Nginx, Atatus consumes stub_status, access logs, and error logs. For Nginx Plus, Atatus integrates the full /api endpoint — upstream groups, server zones, SSL stats, resolver zones, and cache statistics. One agent, both deployments.
Correlate Nginx with the services behind it
A spike in Nginx 502s links directly to the upstream service that returned the error, the APM trace of a failing request, and the host that was unhealthy. One click; no cross-tool correlation.
Log parsing without extra tooling
Access and error logs are parsed into structured fields automatically — status code, path, upstream, duration, user agent. No separate Logstash or Fluentd pipeline required.
Flat pricing, no per-request fees
Most Nginx monitoring tools (and APM vendors with Nginx integrations) charge per host or per metric. Atatus flat per-host pricing includes unlimited Nginx monitoring alongside APM, logs, infra, and RUM.
