Amazon RDS Monitoring Integration

Amazon's Relational Database Service (RDS) is a managed web service that lets you deploy and scale SQL data stores in the cloud with ease. With Site24x7's RDS integration you can monitor metrics like CPU utilization, CPU credit usage, burst balance, read/write IOPS, database connections, network throughput and more for each active relational database instance. All RDS engine types are supported.

Setup and configuration

  • If you have't done already, enable Site24x7 access to your AWS account (IAM user or IAM role). Learn more.
  • In the Integrate AWS Account page, select RDS Instance from the Services to be discovered field. Learn more.

Performance Insights for RDS monitoring

Performance Insights is an advanced tool provided by AWS that allows users to gain deep visibility into the performance of their RDS database instances, helping to diagnose performance issues and optimize database operations. Site24x7's RDS Performance Insights monitor helps you monitor and analyze the performance of RDS instances in real-time.

To fully leverage Site24x7's RDS monitoring, ensuret that you enable Performance Insights in the AWS Management Console. 

To enable Performance Insights for an RDS instance in AWS Console, follow the steps below:

  1. Open the AWS Management Console.
  2. Navigate to RDS and select Databases.
  3. Choose the instance for which you want to enable Performance Insights.
  4. Click Modify.
  5. Under the Monitoring section, enable the Turn on Performance Insights option and set the retention period.
  6. Review the changes and click Continue.
  7. Select the applicable Schedule modifications option and click Modify cluster.

Site24x7 offers the Performance Insights monitor as an advanced monitor. When you integrate an RDS instance with Performance Insights configured in AWS, Site24x7 automatically creates a Performance Insights monitor for that RDS instance.

To disable Performance Insights monitor for your RDS instance in Site24x7,

  1. Navigate to the Edit Monitor Details page of your monitored RDS instance.
  2. Toggle the Turn on Performance Insights option to No.
  3. Click Save.

Policies and permissions

Please make sure the following read level API actions are present in the policy assigned to the Site24x7 IAM entity. Learn more.

  • "rds:ListTagsForResource",
  • "rds:DescribeDBInstances",
  • "rds:DescribeDBLogFiles",
  • "rds:DescribeAccountAttributes",
  • "rds:DescribeDBClusters",
  • "rds:DescribeEvents"

Polling frequency

Site24x7 queries the CloudWatch API as per the poll frequency set (1 minute to a day), to collect performance metrics for your RDS resource. Learn more.

IT Automations

You can add automations for the AWS services supported by Site24x7. Log in to Site24x7 and go to Admin > IT Automation Templates (+) > Add Automation Templates. Once automations are added, you can schedule them to be executed one after the other.

You can start, stop, and reboot with failover the DB instances with Amazon RDS automations.
