We’ve just added MySQL Logs integration in Sematext Cloud alongside our other 100+ integrations.
This integration allows you to effortlessly collect, monitor, analyze, and alert on MySQL Logs. It comes with 7 out-of-the-box dashboards and 6 default alerts, so you can start getting value from it even without any of your customizations.
Check out what we collect and visualize with out-of-the-box dashboards:
- General logs display connect and disconnect events, as well as SQL statement events from clients. If you suspect an error in a client, you can precisely determine what the client sent to the MySQL instance by examining the general query log.
- Slow queries that affect database performance and overall server performance.
- InnoDB storage engine logs that give you insights into your storage engine’s behavior to ensure optimal usage of resources.
- Server error logs, to detect and troubleshoot critical errors to ensure seamless operations.
- Detect and investigate security-related events from MySQL Enterprise Audit logs:
- Queries that failed because of insufficient privileges.
- Failed login attempts.
- Breakdown of statements and top operations per user and host from MySQL Enterprise Audit logs.
- Together with all the above built-in reports, you’ll get out-of-the-box alerts.
Default Alert Rules: Stay Informed and Secure:
- High number of slow queries and queries that are taking more than a certain threshold.
- High InnoDB and Server error rates.
- Insufficient privileges and failed login attempts to identify security threats.
In conjunction with the MySQL performance monitoring, you can now take full control of your MySQL environment. Don’t forget to use Split Screen. It’s great for correlating performance spikes with log events. This will help you swiftly pinpoint and resolve MySQL-related issues and not waste time juggling between metrics and logs. Correlating real-time performance metrics with detailed logs, you can identify potential bottlenecks, query constraints, optimize resource allocation and isolate issues in no time.
