## Database integrations

## What you learned in Database Observability

- Deep query-level monitoring for MySQL and PostgreSQL
- How Grafana Alloy collects query performance, explain plans, and wait events
- When Database Observability is the right choice for your database

* * *

What you’ll do in this module:

- **What integrations provide** — Metric collection, pre-built dashboards, and alerting
- **MongoDB** — Operations, connections, replication, and memory monitoring
- **Redis** — Commands, memory, keyspace, and persistence monitoring
- **Memcached** — Hit rate, evictions, memory, and connection monitoring
- **Cassandra** — Reads, writes, compaction, and JVM monitoring
- **MySQL and PostgreSQL** — Basic metric monitoring as a fallback when Database Observability isn’t an option
- **Oracle Database** — Sessions, processes, tablespaces, and wait-event monitoring

Choose one database to set up hands-on, or explore multiple.

## Estimated time

10–15 minutes (concept slides) + 15–20 minutes (hands-on learning path)
