MySQL / MariaDB Monitoring

MySQL monitoring performs the native handshake against your database server — verifying it accepts connections, measuring latency, and catching the exhaustion states that precede a real outage.

Connection refused is how your app learns the DB is down — get there first

What it checks

  • MySQL protocol handshake
  • Connection acceptance and latency
  • Too-many-connections and auth failures

Set it up

  1. 1Add a MySQL monitor per host and port
  2. 2Run private instances through the internal agent
  3. 3Escalate to the database owner

FAQ

Does it need credentials?

No — the protocol handshake is enough to know the server accepts connections and answers. Credential-level checks stay inside the network via the agent.
