You can use application performance monitoring tools from companies such as New Relic, DataDog and Elastic. Just be aware that these tools will impose a bit of a performance overhead, so if you are already at the limit of capacity, then adding these tools could cause things to degrade. In the long run this additional overhead would usually be more than made up by improvements you make to your application based on the data these tools can capture.
Alternatively, if you already have systems in place for collecting metrics, such as InfluxDB, Graphite etc, then you could hook into the capabilities of mod_wsgi to emit its own metrics. It doesn't cover everything mod_wsgi can do in this area these days, but you can get some insight on some of the metrics tracking capabilities of mod_wsgi by reading. http://blog.dscpl.com.au/2015/06/implementing-request-monitoring-within.html <http://blog.dscpl.com.au/2015/06/implementing-request-monitoring-within.html> The mod_wsgi package actually has better APIs available now than what is described there, but not sure anything has ever been posted about them except maybe minor mentions in release notes. Unless though you have the capability to store metrics already, or are prepared to put the effort into setting up a system to do so, this path would not be for you.
