Huawei Cloud GaussDB-Influx¶

The display Metrics of Huawei Cloud GaussDB-Influx include write throughput, query latency, data retention policies, and scalability. These Metrics reflect the performance and reliability of GaussDB-Influx when handling large-scale time series data storage and queries.

Configuration¶

Install Func¶

It is recommended to enable Guance integration - extension - DataFlux Func (Automata): all prerequisites will be automatically installed. Please continue with the script installation.

If you deploy Func yourself, refer to Self-deployed Func

Installation Script¶

Note: Please prepare a Huawei Cloud AK that meets the requirements in advance (for simplicity, you can directly grant global read-only permission ReadOnlyAccess)

To synchronize Huawei Cloud DIS monitoring data, we install the corresponding collection script: 「Guance Integration (Huawei Cloud-GaussDB-Influx Collection)」(ID: guance_huaweicloud_gaussdb_influx)

After clicking 【Install】, enter the corresponding parameters: Huawei Cloud AK and Huawei Cloud account name.

Click 【Deploy Startup Script】, and the system will automatically create a Startup script set and automatically configure the corresponding startup script.

After the script is installed, find the script 「Guance Integration (Huawei Cloud-GaussDB-Influx Collection)」in the "Development" section of Func, expand and modify this script. Find collector_configs and monitor_configs, respectively edit the content of region_projects, change the region and Project ID to the actual region and Project ID, then click Save and Publish.

In addition, you can see the corresponding automatic trigger configuration in 「Management / Automatic Trigger Configuration」. Click 【Execute】to immediately execute once without waiting for the scheduled time. After a short while, you can view the execution task records and corresponding logs.

We default collect some configurations, for details see the Metrics column Customize cloud object Metrics

Verification¶

1. In 「Management / Automatic Trigger Configuration」, confirm whether the corresponding task has the corresponding automatic trigger configuration, and at the same time, you can check the corresponding task records and logs to see if there are any abnormalities.
2. On the Guance platform, under 「Infrastructure / Custom」, check if there is asset information.
3. On the Guance platform, under 「Metrics」, check if there are corresponding monitoring data.

Metrics¶

After configuring Huawei Cloud - Cloud Monitoring, the default Measurement set is as follows. You can collect more Metrics through configuration Huawei Cloud Cloud Monitoring Metrics Details

Objects¶

The collected Huawei Cloud GaussDB-Influx object data structure can be viewed under 「Infrastructure - Custom」

    "message"         : "{Instance JSON Data}"
  }
}

Note: The fields in tags and fields may vary with subsequent updates.

Tip 1: The value of tags.name is the instance ID, which serves as a unique identifier.

Tip 2: The following fields are all strings serialized in JSON format:

• fields.message
• fields.backup_strategy
• fields.datastore
• fields.groups
• fields.actions
