Key features

  • Reports and alerts

    Reports on workflow, jobs and activity, with alerts when a threshold is crossed.

  • Enterprise auditing

    Every service call is recorded as JSON: who, what, which resource and when.

  • Event streams

    Every change, merge and publish as an event your BI and monitoring tools can consume.

Reports and alerts

Reports are generated as your team works, so you can see how content moves through review and where it waits.

  • Reports

    Report on workflows, the job queue, user activity and content, and chart metrics such as the most active contributors, content age and publishing throughput.

  • Workflow monitoring

    Every workflow transition is tracked and timed, so statistics show what is working and where bottlenecks are.

  • Alerts

    Send email, Amazon SNS or Slack notifications when a step takes too long or work falls behind schedule.

  • Export

    Export reports to Excel, CSV or JSON for your own analysis tools.

Enterprise auditing for regulatory compliance

Log every interaction with the core system, down at the service level to record each principal, resource and method invocation (including arguments, the result, timing and system information) to produce a rich and detailed audit trail for use in regulatory compliance initiatives. The audit engine is available on dedicated Gitana Cloud and self-managed installations.

  • Audit trail

    The audit engine captures every single method invocation within the service-layer of the Gitana Java data engine. Audit logs are written to disk as JSON, one record per call, with the principal, resource, method, arguments, result and timing.

  • Logging and S3 rollover

    Audit logs are written with Log4j2, so they can be rotated and archived to cold storage, with built-in upload to Amazon S3 on rollover.

An audit record, abridged: who did what, to which resource, through which service method.

Event streams

Every interaction raises an event: content changes, branch merges, publishing. Events go to a message queue and an activities stream that your business intelligence and monitoring tools can consume as they happen.

  • Message queue

    Events are placed on your configured queue in real time, for monitoring tools to transform and analyze.

  • Activities you can query

    Query activity by user, branch, project, content item and time: what was modified, which branches merged, which release went live.

  • Tagged for your tools

    Each event carries its project, user, content, branch and action, so you can feed it to Amazon Kinesis or a BI tool and correlate it with your CRM, marketing and support systems.
