Redis® is an in-memory database that provides blazingly fast performance. This makes it a compelling alternative to disk-based databases when performance is a concern. Redis returns a big list of database metrics when you run the info command on the Redis shell. This blog post lists the important database metrics to monitor.

Identifying key Redis® metrics such as latency, CPU usage, and memory metrics is crucial for effective Redis monitoring. Redis® Monitoring Essentials Ensuring the performance, reliability, and safety of a Redis® database requires active monitoring. Monitoring tools should also be considered when setting up your Redis® database.

The fact that this shows up as CPU time suggests that the reads were all hitting in the system cache and the CPU time was the kernel overhead (note ntoskrnl.exe on the first sampled call stack) of grabbing data from the cache. Remember that these are calls to the operating system – kernel calls.

Hardware Memory The amount of RAM to be provisioned for database servers can vary greatly depending on the size of the database and the specific requirements of the company. By caching hot datasets, indexes, and ongoing changes, InnoDB can provide faster response times and utilize disk IO in a much more optimal way.

At its core, a distributed storage system comprises three main components: a controller for managing the system’s operations, an internal datastore where information is held, and databases geared towards ensuring scalability, partitioning capabilities, and high availability for all types of data.

In this blog post, we will discuss the best practices on the MongoDB ecosystem applied at the Operating System (OS) and MongoDB levels. Note that the intent of tuning the settings is not exclusively about improving performance but also enhancing the high availability and resilience of the MongoDB database.
