appsignal-elixir VS db_connection

This is where AppSignal for Elixir can help. Once set up, it automatically records all errors and can also trigger alerts based on predefined conditions.

The best way to know what is happening to your whole stack is to instrument your application with tools like Telemetry or OpenTelemetry, then connect it to your favorite monitoring tool, like AppSignal!

After you deploy your application to production, AppSignal can help monitor and debug errors from the real world too. You can set it up for your app easily and painlessly — once installed, you'll immediately gain access to the main dashboard, which includes error tracking, alongside some other great features.

Set up AppSignal for your Elixir application, and you'll automatically gain access to an error dashboard with information about all the errors in your app.

To make sure that you properly track crashes, you can use a monitoring service like AppSignal. AppSignal is easy to install for your Elixir app and helps you monitor performance as well as track errors. Here's an example of an error tracking dashboard that AppSignal provides:

A Supervisor starts that keeps track of all the processes required to keep Ecto working. The Supervision tree initializes the adapter (Ecto.Adapters.Postgres, in this case), which is responsible for all communication with the database. The Postgres adapter, in turn, starts a connection pool to your database using the DBConnection library.
