Metrics

You can configure Neo4j to log many different metrics to help you keep your applications running smoothly. By default, you can view this data via Neo4j Ops Manager (NOM), retrieved from CSV files, or exposed over JMX MBeans, but you can also export it to third-party monitoring tools, such as Graphite and Prometheus.

Reading the Performance section is recommended to better understand the metrics.
