# Predefined DBaaS Grafana Dashboards

Find and use the predefined Grafana metrics and logs dashboards for IONOS CLOUD DBaaS PostgreSQL, MariaDB, and In-Memory DB.

The Monitoring Service and Logging Service Grafana instance includes six predefined dashboards for DBaaS PostgreSQL, MariaDB, and In-Memory DB: one metrics dashboard and one logs dashboard for each database. In Grafana, go to **Dashboards** > **IONOS CLOUD** to find them.

## Prerequisites

To populate a database's dashboards, activate [<mark style="color:blue;">Central Monitoring</mark>](/cloud/home/observability/monitoring-service/dcd-how-tos/central-monitoring.md#turn-on-central-monitoring-for-a-region) and [<mark style="color:blue;">Central Logging</mark>](/cloud/home/observability/logging-service/dcd-how-tos/central-logging.md#turn-on-central-logging-for-a-region) for the cluster's region. Also turn on **Enable metrics** and **Enable logs** in the cluster's **Observability** settings. For the database-specific steps, see **Configure Observability** for [<mark style="color:blue;">PostgreSQL</mark>](/cloud/home/databases/postgresql/how-tos/v2/create-postgresql-cluster.md#configure-observability), [<mark style="color:blue;">MariaDB</mark>](/cloud/home/databases/mariadb/how-tos/v2/create-mariadb-cluster.md#configure-observability), and [<mark style="color:blue;">In-Memory DB</mark>](/cloud/home/databases/in-memory-db/how-tos/v2/create-in-memory-db-cluster.md#configure-observability).

## Dashboard coverage

Each metrics dashboard starts with a fleet table that lists every cluster that sends metrics. Each logs dashboard starts with a fleet table that lists every cluster that sends logs. Use the fleet table to compare your clusters before you select one. Select a cluster in the table or in the **Cluster** drop-down list to see its details. Every metrics dashboard also shows the CPU, memory, disk, and network usage of each instance, and every logs dashboard ends with a searchable view of the full cluster log.

| **Database** | **Metrics dashboard**                                                                                                                                                | **Logs dashboard**                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| ------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| PostgreSQL   | Cluster health, sessions, locks, transaction throughput, database size, storage usage, replication, WAL archiving, and the PostgreSQL settings.                      | Errors by code, `FATAL` messages, `PANIC` messages, warnings, deadlocks, login failures, slow statements, lock waits, connections per user, connections per application, checkpoints, autovacuum runs, and temporary files. |
| MariaDB      | Cluster health, connections, threads, statement throughput, InnoDB buffer pool usage, row locks, storage usage, replication, binary logs, and the MariaDB settings.  | Errors by code, failed statements, server errors, server warnings, deadlocks, lock wait timeouts, login failures, slow queries, aborted connections, connections per user, and connections per client.                      |
| In-Memory DB | Cluster health, clients, commands, latency, keyspace hits, evictions, memory usage, snapshots, replication, network traffic, storage usage, and the Valkey settings. | Saved snapshots, failed snapshots, full resyncs, other replication events, client connection errors, warnings, and restarts.                                                                                                |

The metrics and logs dashboards for a database link to each other and retain the selected cluster and time range. You can use the dashboards as provided or save a copy and adapt it to your needs. You can also create [<mark style="color:blue;">Grafana alert rules</mark>](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/) for metrics such as storage usage, connections, or replication lag.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.ionos.com/cloud/home/databases/databases/dbaas-grafana-dashboards.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
