In general, Observe automatically detects databases used by your applications, provided the applications are instrumented with OpenTelemetry.
To instrument your applications, we recommend following the public documentation - APM instrumentation - Observability Cloud documentation
Once instrumented:
-
Navigate to Service Explorer by clicking on
Services
-
Filter for service type
Database -
You can now monitor summary metrics for databases in the catalog
-
You can also dive deeper for each database, and inspect various operations and calls
