Getting Started With DBGorilla SaaS

Last updated

View as Markdown

DBGorilla monitors your PostgreSQL databases and turns what it finds into recommendations. You run a lightweight collector inside your own network; it reads database and host metrics and reports them to DBGorilla. DBGorilla has no direct network path to your databases. Anything the platform asks for is run by the collector, using the database role you grant it.

Two steps get you running:

  1. Create an account.
  2. Deploy the collector in your network, plus node_exporter on the hosts you want host metrics from.

The collector runs as a container, under Docker or on Kubernetes with our Helm chart.

Then invite your team.
