About the Origin Inspector dashboard

The Origin Inspector dashboard displays the following metrics:

  • Responses by Origin: the number of responses processed by each origin host.
  • Response body bytes by Origin: the number of response body bytes returned by each origin host.
  • Response header bytes by Origin: the number of response header bytes returned by each origin host.
  • 2xx by Origin: the number of 2xx type (success) HTTP response status codes returned by each origin host.
  • 3xx by Origin: the number of 3xx type (redirection) HTTP response status codes returned by each origin host.
  • 4xx by Origin: the number of 4xx type (client error) HTTP response status codes returned by each origin host.
  • 5xx by Origin: the number of 5xx type (server error) HTTP response status codes returned by each origin host.
  • Origin Latency: a histogram showing the distribution of origin latency times. This tells you how quickly your origin is responding to Fastly. This metric only appears on the Origin Inspector dashboard when the Origin menu is set to a specific origin.
