Monitor CPU Usage in Your Kotlin Application

Monitoring the CPU usage of your Kotlin application is essential to ensure optimal performance and efficient resource utilization. High CPU usage can lead to application slowdowns, unresponsiveness, and potential server crashes. By keeping a close eye on CPU metrics, you can proactively identify performance bottlenecks, optimize code, and provide a smooth user experience.

Saashound, a powerful real-time event tracking tool, offers seamless CPU monitoring for your Kotlin application. By integrating Saashound directly into your application or server, you can effortlessly track CPU usage in real-time and receive insightful data to make informed decisions.

Connecting Saashound to Your Kotlin Application

To begin monitoring CPU usage in your Kotlin application using Saashound, follow these simple steps:

  1. Sign up for a free Saashound account to start tracking your application’s events.
  2. Create your first project from the user-friendly dashboard.
  3. Access the settings and securely copy your unique API token.

Kotlin Integration

Integrating Saashound into your Kotlin application is straightforward. Use the following code snippet to start tracking CPU usage. Remember to replace API_TOKEN with your actual Saashound API token and update the project name to match your project.

Using okhttp
val client = OkHttpClient()
val mediaType = MediaType.parse("application/json")
val jsonPayload = """
{
"project":"my-project",
"channel":"server-status",
"event":"High CPU Usage",
"description":"CPU for my-second-project has been over 95% for 1 Hour!."
,"icon":"🔥",
"notify":true
}
"""
val body = RequestBody.create(mediaType, jsonPayload)
val apiUrl = "https://api.saashound.co/log-event"
val request = Request.Builder()
.url(apiUrl)
.post(body)
.addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json")
.addHeader("Authorization", "Bearer API_TOKEN")
.build()
client.newCall(request).execute().use { response ->
if (response.isSuccessful) {
println("Log event sent successfully!")
} else {
println("Failed to send log event. Response code: ${response.code}")
}
}

With Saashound tracking your CPU usage, you can:

  • Receive real-time notifications if CPU usage exceeds predefined thresholds.
  • Analyze historical CPU usage trends to identify patterns and potential performance issues.
  • Set up custom alerts and triggers to notify your team when CPU usage spikes occur.
  • Optimize application performance by fine-tuning resource-intensive code segments.
