title: Monitoring
 | 
						|
---
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
authentik can be easily monitored in multiple ways.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Server monitoring
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Configure your monitoring software to send requests to `/-/health/live/`, which will return a `HTTP 200` response as long as authentik is running. You can also send HTTP requests to `/-/health/ready/`, which will return `HTTP 200` if both PostgreSQL and Redis connections can be/have been established correctly.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Worker monitoring
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The worker container can be monitored by running `ak healthcheck` in the worker container. This will ping the worker and ensure it can communicate with redis as required.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Outpost monitoring
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Both kinds of outpost (proxy and LDAP) listen on a separate port (9300) and can be monitored by sending HTTP requests to `/outpost.goauthentik.io/ping`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
---
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Both Docker Compose and Kubernetes deployments use these methods by default to determine when authentik is ready after starting, and to only route traffic to healthy instances; unhealthy instances are restarted.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Metrics
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Both the core authentik server and any outposts expose Prometheus metrics on a separate port (9300), which can be scraped to gather further insight into authentik's state. The metrics require no authentication, as they are hosted on a separate, non-exposed port by default.
