Springbeat

Welcome to Springbeat.

Important Notes:

1. For now, only two endpoints are supported, namely /metrics and /health. We'll add more endpoints as we go
2. This plugin will only work if your Spring Boot application has the spring-boot-starter-actuator dependency

		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
			<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-actuator</artifactId>
		</dependency>
