Spring Boot Admin Hystrix Dashboard

Overview

The Hystrix Dashboard module for Spring Boot Admin 2.x is a valuable tool for those looking to monitor and manage their microservices. Designed using the spring-boot-admin-sample-custom-ui project as a base, this custom view module allows users to view Hystrix metrics directly from the Spring Boot Admin interface. While Hystrix has entered maintenance mode as of November 2018, this module offers a practical solution to keep your dashboards functional after migrating applications from Spring Boot 1 to 2.

Although there are newer technologies available, such as resilience4j and Grafana, the Hystrix Dashboard module serves its purpose for projects that rely on Hystrix for circuit breaking and fault tolerance. With straightforward installation and setup, it can effectively visualize the health of applications in a Spring Boot environment.
