Hello  
I’m using the HiveMQ Cloud Basic and I would like to do some tests on it. What is the best way to test my broker and to monitor it? On my local PC, i’ve installed HiveMQ and I’m using the prometheus extension to monitor the broker. This is a nice tool, but can I also use this with HiveMQ Cloud Basic? And else, what tool can I use?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @joko06 ,

monitoring is available only in Dedicated HiveMQ Cloud package.  
In case if you are hosting HiveMQ CE in your own environment, you can use Open-source monitoring extensions: [Discover the 3 different editions of HiveMQ](https://www.hivemq.com/hivemq/editions/)
