View In-Memory DB Cluster Metrics

You can monitor the performance of your In-Memory DB v2 clusters by opening the metrics dashboard in Grafana directly from the DCD.

Prerequisites:

• An active In-Memory DB v2 cluster with Logs and Metrics activated. For more information, see Configure Observability.
• Access to the Grafana dashboard. For more information, see Access Metrics from the Platform.

Navigate to In-Memory DB clusters

1. In the DCD, go to Menu > Databases > In-Memory DB.

A list of all In-Memory DB clusters is displayed.

2. Note the LOCATION of the cluster for which you want to monitor the metrics.

Activate Central Monitoring for a region

To view a cluster's metrics, you must activate Central Monitoring for the region where the cluster is located. To do so, complete the steps in Turn on Central Monitoring for a region.

Important: Metric collection begins as soon as a new instance is provisioned, but initial metrics take 10 minutes to 1 hour to appear in the DCD or through the API. After that, you can poll for metrics at any time.

Open Grafana from the cluster details

1. Select a cluster (for whose location Central Monitoring was activated) from the list by clicking on its name. Alternatively, click View details in the OPTIONS column.

Select an In-Memory DB cluster

2. From the Cluster details page, go to Observability section, and select Open in Grafana to open the Grafana dashboard for the cluster's data center location. If you have instances in multiple regions, a region drop-down appears so you can switch between them.
