# Monitor your load balancers

Monitoring is essential for any system. In GreenNode, you can monitor your vLBs using the vMonitor Platform service.

#### What is the vMonitor Platform?

The vMonitor Platform is a Monitoring as a Service solution that helps you collect health metrics and activity logs for resources on GreenNode (or external to GreenNode). Additionally, you can create visual dashboards, set up alarms, and send notifications when incidents occur.
