Key Innovations
The monitoring interface delivers critical observability capabilities through a progressive drill-down experience, enabling users to:
• Track real-time and historical cluster performance metrics with customizable time ranges and granularity
• Identify performance bottlenecks by analyzing query patterns and their impact on overall system resources
• Dissect query execution lifecycles with detailed breakdowns of compilation, execution, and wait times
• Profile user behavior and resource consumption patterns to optimize workload distribution
Through thoughtful UX design and data visualization, this solution transforms raw performance data from system table into clear, actionable insights that drive database optimization decisions.
