On-call burden — sound familiar?

  • Galera donor down means new node can't join — Adding a node requires a healthy donor; under load the SST donor enters Donor/Desynced and stays there, blocking all cluster operations.
  • Slow query log generation outpacing review — MariaDB writing 2GB of slow query log/day; pt-query-digest analysis runs on the team's laptops once a quarter, not daily, so regressions go undetected.
  • MaxScale routing decisions opaque — Why did MaxScale send that transaction to the lagging replica? Routing diagnostics aren't enabled by default and the team doesn't know how to read them.

Proactive Monitoring & Maintenance

We don't wait for things to break. Our monitoring platform detects anomalies in query performance, replication health, disk utilization, and connection patterns before they become incidents. Regular maintenance windows ensure your MariaDB instances stay optimized and healthy.
