    Are you interested to get insights from Okta tenant? Metrics monitor can help you there. It provides a rapid way to obtain metrics and statistics from Okta so that you can build your dashboards in few minutes.

    Overview

    Metrics monitor for Okta is a simple but powerful solution that helps you combat visualisation challenges in an efficient manner.

    Organizations depend on strategic monitoring tools to obtain a unified, real time view of their enterprise services. Leading IDaaS platforms like Okta provide built-in administrative dashboards; however, access is typically restricted to a limited group of users. When monitoring is distributed across fragmented tools, it often leads to siloed insights and potential security blind spots. Additionally, extracting metrics and telemetry data from such platforms usually requires custom development efforts, as out-of-the-box integrations are limited.

    Our vision is to offer a cost effective and efficient solution for generating actionable IAM insights. Metrics Monitor for Okta is a light weight service that securely connects to your Okta tenant and exposes metrics in a Prometheus compatible format. These metrics can then be seamlessly integrated with your preferred monitoring tool, enabling centralized visibility and enhanced observability. Metrics Monitor for Okta allow you build dashboards with your strategic monitoring tools

    Metrics Monitor for Okta is not a standalone solution, it requires integration with a Prometheus compatible monitoring tool to visualize the exported metrics. The service supports two operational modes:

    1. Push Mode: Metrics are pushed to an Amazon Managed Prometheus workspace. In this mode, customers must use a monitoring tool capable of connecting to an Amazon Managed Prometheus data source.
    2. Pull Mode: Customers deploy and configure their own Prometheus server to scrape metrics from the endpoint exposed by the Metrics Monitor instance. Once the data source is connected, customers can create and tailor dashboards using the monitoring tool of their choice.

    Highlights

    • Metrics and statistics from Okta at your disposal
    • Bring your own monitoring tool and integrate with Okta metrics
    • No scripts or custom code to extract insights out of Okta

    Metrics-Monitor-for-Okta-1.0.0.0

    This template provides 1 click deployment option to setup metrics monitor service for gathering insights from Okta tenant. It securely stores all the configuration information into AWS secret manager. This template also provisions objects like IAM role, profile, security group along with a ec2 instance which requires appropriate level of permissions on AWS.

    CloudFormation Template (CFT)

    AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."

    • Region, target VPC and subnet under that VPC
    • Environment identifier (referred as envID here onwards)
    • Agent identifier (referred as agentID here onwards)
    • Operational mode (with Amazon Managed Prometheus or self hosted Prometheus)
    • Workspace re-write URL in case of Amazon Managed Prometheus
    • Username, password and CIDR to control access to agent endpoint
    • API key generated on target Okta tenant

    CloudFormation template: CloudFormation template will provision following AWS resources.

    • A Secret (envID_agentID-mm-okta-secret) on AWS Secret Manager to hold configuration and secret data
    • A IAM role (envID_agentID-mm-okta-role) and policy (envID_agentID-mm-okta-policy) to allow EC2 access to secret and Amazon Managed Prometheus workspace
    • EC2 instance (envID_agentID-mm4okta) to run agent
