Spring Insight Framework

December 13, 2025 · View on GitHub

DEPRECATED: Spring Insight is an obsolete monitoring tool that has been replaced by modern APM solutions (New Relic, AppDynamics, Dynatrace, etc.). This framework is no longer actively maintained and is not recommended for new deployments.

The Spring Insight Framework causes an application to be automatically configured to work with a bound Spring Insight Service. This feature will only work with Spring Insight versions of 2.0.0.x or above.

Detection Criterion	Existence of a single bound Spring Insight service. Existence of a Spring Insight service is defined as the `VCAP_SERVICES` payload containing a service who's name, label or tag has `insight` as a substring.
Tags	`spring-insight=<version>`

Tags are printed to standard output by the buildpack detect script

User-Provided Service

When binding Spring Insight using a user-provided service, it must have name or tag with insight in it. The credential payload must contain the following entries:

Name	Description
`dashboard_url`	The URL via which users access the Spring Insight dashboard.

Configuration

The Spring Insight Framework cannot be configured.
