Expose the metric filecount_size_bytes
As backend and DevOps engineer / SRM, I want to be able to visualize in Grafana metrics related to WAL files buildup due to lagging or missing replication slots.
This will help us debug WAL bloat which might exhaust the disk space and better understand the cause.Mainly the metric
filecount_size_byteswill be useful. Also any metric that would allow us to monitor per database service:
1. Total WAL size.
2. Size of WAL retained due to replication lag.
3. Rate in which we consume the WAL for the replication over time (connector consumption rate).
4. Rate in which we…2 votes -
Proactive Performance Alerts, AI-based [PostgreSQL/MySQL]
A fast way to Identify PostgreSQL & MySQL performance issues.

DB optimization, using query rewrites suggestions [PostgreSQL/MySQL]
A fast way to optimize my PostgreSQL & MySQL databases automatically.
As a software engineer/DevOps, I would like to see my slowest queries and receive recommendations along with a newly rewritten version of the query, optimized to run 10 times faster. These optimizations could potentially save my team an average of 50 weekly hours, which are currently spent manually optimizing these queries.
I would like to perform these optimizations directly from Aiven's console.Additionally, It is critical that the optimization process be 100% non-intrusive and not require access to my databases' sensitive data.

PostgreSQL logging JSON format with OpenSearch integration
As DBA I want to have better logging using the PostgreSQL v15 logging feature to save the logs in JSON format so that I can integrate these logs in OpenSearch and provide better readability of these logs.
This will provide 2 things:
1 - Parse of the fields of the log entries -> give more capabilities searching the logs - easily filter some field like user/database/application name
2 - Multi line queries in one log entry -> right now, multi line queries saves each line in a different log entry, which is very hard to filter a full query since…2 votes -
