percona-server-mongodb-operator VS pmm

Deploying the Percona Operator for MongoDB using ArgoCD represents a significant step forward in managing complex database systems within Kubernetes. By integrating Helm charts with GitOps principles, organizations can achieve more consistent, scalable, and error-resistant deployments.

It's the turn of percona/percona-server-mongodb-operator; Denys Kondratenko is the maintainer of this project. It is an excellent opportunity to learn about Kubernetes and how to extend it and maintain stateful databases inside Kubernetes. Most of the things are tracked in GitHub and Jira.

For ongoing monitoring of query performance, I use Percona Monitoring & Management - it's query log provides an easy way to spot frequent queries that may need optimizing.

I cannot recommend PMM highly enough - it's free. You'll get a ton of insight into your DB's bottlenecks, and can use it to validate changes made.

I use the free, open-source tool Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM) for monitoring and graphing.

i don't know if this is an idiom or not but at my workplace each go repo has a separate tools/ directory, which only has 3 files `tools.go` , `go.mod` and `go.sum` https://github.com/percona/pmm/tree/main/tools

Curious what monitoring solution you've used that's both plug-and-play and in IaC. And in any case, nothing stops you (I like this approach, actually) from running your monitoring solution in K8s. For DBs in particular, I'm a huge fan of PMM, which is a set of extremely thorough Grafana dashboards atop VictoriaMetrics, with some discovery tooling.

Our next project is Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM). This project is supported by Artem Gavrilov, Backend Software Engineer, and Nurlan Moldomurov, Full-Stack Engineer. PMM is a great project to contribute to during Hacktoberfest. There are minor and easy-to-do issues in Github; it is not necessary to register them in Jira. These contributions are welcome if you have any good ideas, want to improve something or simplify some process. Send your PR; the maintainers will review it as soon as possible. We also have advanced issues if you want to go for more advanced tasks.
