Grafana
Grafana allows you to visualize and analyze metrics about PG AI Hybrid Manager deployments, HM-managed database clusters and any other external clusters connected to the Hybrid Manager. You can monitor performance, troubleshoot issues, and gain insights into resource utilization.
For HM-managed clusters, Grafana gathers metrics out of the box. For external clusters, you must first install the PG AI Agent as explained in Monitoring external databases.
Grafana support
Grafana dashboards are supported as follows:
HM-managed clusters — full support out of the box.
Self-managed clusters — partial support after the cluster is connected via the PG AI Agent.
CNP clusters — partial support after the cluster is connected via the PG AI Agent.
RDS clusters — partial support after the cluster is connected via Kubernetes secret.
Accessing Grafana
You can access the built-in Grafana instance via the Launchpad.
Filtering results
Every cluster managed by the Hybrid Manager has an ID, which can be traced back to a namespace and its pods. You can filter and analyze metrics on Grafana by cluster ID (equivalent to a namespace), or by pod name to perform troubleshooting and resource planning operations.
See Tracing clusters back to their Kubernetes resources to understand how Kubernetes infrastructure relates to your cluster. More specifically:
- Understand how to obtain the ID and namespace for a cluster.
- Understand how to recognize the pods in a cluster/namespace.
