Amazon DocumentDB Monitoring


Overview

Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) is a fully managed, scalable document database service that supports MongoDB workloads. Applications Manager monitors three types of DocumentDB resources:

  • DocumentDB Cluster - Consists of a primary instance and up to 15 read replicas across multiple Availability Zones, backed by a distributed storage system that automatically scales.
  • DocumentDB Global Cluster - Spans multiple AWS Regions, enabling low-latency global reads and disaster recovery from Region-wide outages.
  • DocumentDB Instance - The compute components within a DocumentDB cluster that run the database engine and manage data processing for read and write operations.

DocumentDB Cluster

Applications Manager's DocumentDB Cluster monitoring tool provides visibility into the performance, CPU utilization, memory usage, replication lag, database operations, network throughput, and storage metrics of your DocumentDB clusters. Monitoring these metrics enables administrators to identify performance bottlenecks, optimize resource allocation, and ensure high availability of their document database workloads.

Monitored parameters

Go to the Monitors Category View by clicking the Monitors tab. Click on the DocDB Cluster instance available under Amazon in the Cloud Apps section. Displayed is the DocDB Cluster bulk configuration view distributed into three tabs:

  • Availability tab shows the availability history for the past 24 hours or 30 days.
  • Performance tab shows health status and events for the past 24 hours or 30 days.
  • List view tab enables you to perform bulk admin configurations.
