Why Monitor PostGreSQL on Azure?

PostgreSQL on Azure is a fully-managed database that can handle mission-critical workloads with predictable performance, security, high availability, and dynamic scalability. This relational database offers high-availability, automatic backups, and data protection at-rest and in-motion. Azure Database for PostgreSQL makes it easy to deploy, scale, and manage PostgreSQL databases in the cloud. It handles the underlying infrastructure and maintenance tasks, such as patching and backups, so you can focus on developing and deploying your applications. Additionally, it offers several performance and availability options that can be tailored to meet the specific needs of your applications. That is why most administrators are inclined towards Azure databases rather than investing on databases that are hosted on-premises or any other cloud providers. However, to maintain the performance, reliability, and availability of your database server, it is very essential to keep an eye on the day-to-day performance of the database server hosted on cloud. This is exactly where eG Enterprise plays a major role. eG offers a unique PostGreSQL on Azure monitoring model. Using this model, you are able to proactively troubleshoot potential problems and optimize your workload before the issues have an impact on the performance of the database server. To use this model, only a single eG remote agent is required; this agent sits on a remote host and collects the required metrics from the target database.
