Table: oci_mysql_db_system_metric_connections - Query OCI MySQL DB System Metrics using SQL

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) MySQL Database Service is a fully managed relational database service that enables organizations to deploy cloud-native applications using the world’s most popular open-source database. It is developed, managed, and supported by the MySQL team at Oracle. The service is built on the highly available and secure OCI platform and is fully compatible with on-premises MySQL databases.

Table Usage Guide

The oci_mysql_db_system_metric_connections table provides insights into connection metrics within OCI MySQL Database Service. As a database administrator, explore connection-specific details through this table, including total connections, successful connections, and rejected connections. Utilize it to uncover information about database connections, such as those with high frequency, the successful and failed connection attempts, and the verification of connection policies.

Examples

Basic info

Explore the performance metrics of your MySQL database system over time. This query helps you assess the minimum, maximum, and average number of connections, along with the total sample count, allowing you to better understand your system's utilization and manage its capacity effectively.

select
  id,
  timestamp,
  minimum,
  maximum,
  average,
  sample_count
from
  oci_mysql_db_system_metric_connections
order by
  id,
  timestamp;

select
  id,
  timestamp,
  minimum,
  maximum,
  average,
  sample_count
from
  oci_mysql_db_system_metric_connections
order by
  id,
  timestamp;

Active connection statistics

Analyze the statistics of active connections to gain insights into the performance and usage patterns of your MySQL database system. This can help you understand peak usage times, manage resources more effectively, and troubleshoot potential issues.

select
  id,
  timestamp,
  round(minimum :: numeric, 2) as min_conn,
  round(maximum :: numeric, 2) as max_conn,
  round(average :: numeric, 2) as avg_conn,
  sample_count
from
  oci_mysql_db_system_metric_connections
where
  metric_name = 'ActiveConnections'
order by
  id,
  timestamp;

select
  id,
  timestamp,
  round(minimum, 2) as min_conn,
  round(maximum, 2) as max_conn,
  round(average, 2) as avg_conn,
  sample_count
from
  oci_mysql_db_system_metric_connections
where
  metric_name = 'ActiveConnections'
order by
  id,
  timestamp;

Current connection statistics

Analyze the current connection statistics from your MySQL database system in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to understand the minimum, maximum, and average connections over a specified period. This can help you manage your database connections more effectively, ensuring optimal performance and resource utilization.

select
  id,
  timestamp,
  round(minimum :: numeric, 2) as min_conn,
  round(maximum :: numeric, 2) as max_conn,
  round(average :: numeric, 2) as avg_conn,
  sample_count
from
  oci_mysql_db_system_metric_connections
where
  metric_name = 'CurrentConnections'
order by
  id,
  timestamp;

select
  id,
  timestamp,
  round(minimum, 2) as min_conn,
  round(maximum, 2) as max_conn,
  round(average, 2) as avg_conn,
  sample_count
from
  oci_mysql_db_system_metric_connections
where
  metric_name = 'CurrentConnections'
order by
  id,
  timestamp;

This table is available as a standalone Exporter CLI. Steampipe exporters are stand-alone binaries that allow you to extract data using Steampipe plugins without a database.

You can download the tarball for your platform from the Releases page, but it is simplest to install them with the steampipe_export_installer.sh script:

/bin/sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://steampipe.io/install/export.sh)" -- oci

You can pass the configuration to the command with the --config argument:

steampipe_export_oci --config '<your_config>' oci_mysql_db_system_metric_connections
