📊 Monitoring & Performance​

Real-Time Metrics​

Monitor your applications with detailed metrics:

// Get performance metrics
const metrics = await client.getMetrics(appId, {
  timeRange: '1h',
  metrics: ['responseTime', 'throughput', 'errorRate'],
});

console.log(`
  Average Response Time: ${metrics.responseTime}ms
  Requests per Second: ${metrics.throughput}
  Error Rate: ${metrics.errorRate}%
`);

Available Metrics:

  • Response time and latency
  • Request throughput
  • Error rates and status codes
  • CPU and memory usage
  • Network I/O
  • Geographic distribution

Custom Dashboards​

Create custom monitoring dashboards:

// Create custom dashboard
const dashboard = await client.createDashboard({
  name: 'My App Performance',
  widgets: [
    { type: 'line-chart', metric: 'responseTime', title: 'Response Time' },
    { type: 'counter', metric: 'requests', title: 'Total Requests' },
    { type: 'map', metric: 'geography', title: 'Geographic Distribution' },
  ],
});

🔒 Security & Best Practices​

Security Features​

  • End-to-end encryption for all data
  • Network isolation between deployments
  • Secrets management for sensitive data
  • Access control with role-based permissions
  • Audit logging for all activities

Best Practices​

Environment Variables​

# Set environment variables securely
quik env set DATABASE_URL="postgresql://..." --app my-app
quik env set API_KEY="secret123" --app my-app

# View environment variables (values hidden)
quik env list --app my-app

Access Control​

// Invite team member with specific role
await client.inviteTeamMember({
  email: 'developer@company.com',
  role: 'developer', // viewer, developer, admin
  apps: ['my-app-1', 'my-app-2'],
});

→ Security Guide

🎯 Advanced Topics​

Infrastructure as Code​

Define your infrastructure in code:

# quik.yml
name: my-application
version: '1.0'

build:
  command: npm run build
  output: dist
  node_version: '18'

deployment:
  regions: ['us-east-1', 'eu-west-1', 'ap-southeast-1']
  instances:
    min: 2
    max: 10
  health_check:
    path: '/health'
    interval: 30

domains:
  - name: myapp.com
    ssl: auto
  - name: www.myapp.com
    redirect: myapp.com

environment:
  NODE_ENV: production
  API_URL: https://api.myapp.com

scaling:
  metrics:
    - cpu > 80%
    - memory > 85%
    - response_time > 1000ms
  cooldown: 300s

→ Infrastructure as Code Guide

Edge Functions​

Run serverless functions at the network edge:

// edge/auth.js
export default async function handler(request) {
  const token = request.headers.get('authorization');

  if (!isValidToken(token)) {
    return new Response('Unauthorized', { status: 401 });
  }

  // Continue to origin
  return fetch(request);
}

// quik.yml
edge_functions:
  - path: "/api/*"
    function: "./edge/auth.js"

→ Edge Functions Guide

Multi-Environment Setup​

Manage development, staging, and production environments:

# Deploy to different environments
quik deploy --env development
quik deploy --env staging
quik deploy --env production

# Environment-specific configuration
quik env set DATABASE_URL="dev-db-url" --env development
quik env set DATABASE_URL="prod-db-url" --env production
