Overview

Database Monitoring runs on top of the base Datadog Agent. By default, it’s configured with optimal performance settings to minimize impact on your system. However, you have the flexibility to adjust parameters like data collection frequency and query sampling to better suit your workloads.

This page contains the results of integration overhead tests conducted against databases with Datadog Database Monitoring enabled.

Overhead testing results

    Postgres integration overhead tests were run on an Amazon EC2 machine c5.xlarge instance (4 vCPUs, 8 GB RAM). The database used for the tests was a PostgreSQL 14.10 instance running on an Amazon RDS db.m5.large instance (2 vCPUs, 8 GB RAM). The database was running a TPC-C workload with 20 warehouses.

    • Network bandwidth: ~30 KB/s ▼ | 30 KB/s ▲
    • Agent query overhead on database: ~1% CPU Time

    Note: The network bandwidth is the sum of the incoming and outgoing traffic from the Agent to the monitored database and the Datadog backend.

    MySQL integration overhead tests were run on an Amazon EC2 machine c5.xlarge instance (4 vCPUs, 8 GB RAM). The database used for the tests was a MySQL 8.0 instance running on an Amazon RDS db.m5.large instance (2 vCPUs, 8 GB RAM). The database was running a TPC-C workload with 20 warehouses.
