Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Flexible Server is a fully managed PostgreSQL database as a service offering that can handle mission-critical workloads with predictable performance and dynamic scalability. Develop applications with Azure Database for PostgreSQL leveraging the open-source tools and platform of your choice.
Use OpsRamp Azure Public Cloud Integration to discover and collect metrics against Azure PostgreSQL Flexible Server.
Setup
To set up the Azure integration and discover the PostgreSQL Flexible Server resources, do the following:
Create an Azure Integration if not available in your installed integrations. For more information on how to install the Azure Integration, refer to Azure Resources.
Create a discovery profile. For more information on how to create a discovery profile, refer to Create Discovery Profile.
Select
PostgreSQL Flexible Serverunder the Filter Criteria in the Edit Discovery Profile page.Save the discovery profile to make them available in the list of Discovery Profiles.
Scan to discover the resources at any time independent of the predefined schedule.
Once the scan is completed, you can view the PostgreSQL Flexible Server resources under Infrastructure > Resources > Microsoft Azure category.
Create a template with collector type Azure and applicable for PostgreSQL Flexible Server. See Create a Template for more information on how to create a template.
Refer to Assign a Template on how to assign a template to a resource.
Click the Metrics tab to view the monitoring data of PostgreSQL Flexible Server as shown below:
Event support
OpsRamp supports Azure events for Azure PostgreSQL Flexible Server. Configure Azure Events in OpsRamp Azure integration discovery profile.
See Process Azure Events for more information on how to configure Azure events.
