# Horizon: Metrics and Dashboards
Make queues observable and actionable via Horizon.
## Naming & Tags
- Use named queues (e.g., `high`, `default`, `low`); route jobs intentionally
- Tag jobs with domain identifiers (user ID, aggregate ID) for tracing
## Workers & Concurrency
- Right‑size `--max-time`, `--tries`, `--backoff`
- Separate critical queues into dedicated supervisors
## Failures
- Use `failed()` method/logging with structured context
- Idempotency—ensure safe retries (unique keys, upserts, guards)
## Metrics & Dashboards
- Track: throughput, runtime distribution, retries, failure rate, time‑to‑handle
- Add health indicators for backlog and SLA thresholds
- Integrate with your APM where possible
## Testing
- Use `Bus::fake()` for dispatch assertions
- Integration tests to verify side‑effects and tags
