What insights or metrics would help you as an MNS publisher?

Hi all,

We’re currently looking at how we improve observability for MNS, particularly from a publisher perspective. As part of that, we want to make sure any dashboards or metrics we introduce are actually useful to you and your teams.

So rather than guessing, we’d like to ask directly:

What would you most like to see as a publisher?

For example, this could include things like:

  • Visibility of events you’ve published (volume, success/failure)

  • Confidence that events are being delivered to subscribers

  • Insight into who is consuming your events

  • Latency or timeliness of delivery

  • Errors, retries, or downstream issues linked to your events

  • Anything else that helps you understand the health and impact of your integration

We’re particularly interested in:

  • What helps you trust the platform

  • What helps you debug issues quickly

  • What helps you understand the impact of your events

Feel free to share anything—specific metrics, dashboard ideas, or even examples from other platforms you’ve used.

We’ll use this feedback to shape what we build next and will share updates back here as things progress.

Thanks in advance—keen to hear your thoughts.

Just a quick follow-up to say we are still very keen to hear your thoughts on this.

If you publish events to MNS—or are planning to—and have any views on the specific metrics, dashboard insights, or troubleshooting data that would be most useful to your team, please let us know by replying here or reaching out to us directly.
