Hi @lucky-yang,  
when running APM Server on-prem you can enable monitoring by setting `monitoring.enabled: true` in the `apm-server.yml`. In case you have an output configured that is not Elasticsearch or want to configure a dedicated Elasticsearch instance for the monitoring data, you can also configure the `monitoring.elasticsearch.*` section. Once monitoring is enabled you can navigate to _Stack Monitoring_ in Kibana and chose _APM_.

If you are using a hosted APM Server on [Elastic Cloud](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/get-started/current/install-and-run.html#_hosted_elasticsearch_service) you simply navigate to _Stack Monitoring_ in Kibana, and click to enable monitoring. Once the change is applied you should be able to see an APM Server tab.

The monitoring page gives an overview about ingested event data and APM Server resource usage.
