description: "Metrics are essential for monitoring Crossplane's operations, helping to quickly identify and resolve potential issues."
---

This page offers explanations of various metrics gathered from Crossplane, which are essential for effective monitoring and alerting in your Crossplane environment.
Understanding these metrics help you maintain the health and performance of your resources, ensuring that any issues can be identified and addressed.
Please note that this document focuses on Crossplane specific metrics and doesn't cover standard Go metrics.

on the preview site, the table is a bit hard to read/parse because there are no visible rows: https://deploy-preview-802--crossplane.netlify.app/v1.17/concepts/metrics/

Take a look at the table for Customize the Crossplane Helm chart on
https://github.com/crossplane/docs/blob/master/content/master/software/install.md#customize-the-crossplane-helm-chart

It does some styling directives to make easily visible striped rows - see if that helps with this new table!

For example:

{{< table "table table-hover table-striped table-sm">}}
