Query-level database observability for MySQL and PostgreSQL
Stop guessing why the database is slow. Grafana Cloud's Database Observability helps teams trace a slow request to the exact query, execution plan, and wait events behind it, and see which service is impacted. Test and ship precise fixes with built-in AI-powered recommendations.
No in-database agent | SQL redaction by default | MySQL 8+ and PostgreSQL 14+

Debug query latency with precision
Go from aggregate trends to the specific execution that caused the slowdown. See what it waited on, how it ran in a visual explain plan, and which tables it touched, with no production database access needed.
See the database in context
Connect slow requests to the queries behind them. Query samples link to their traces and back, and the Knowledge Graph shows which services depend on each database and where problems start.
Fix slow queries with AI-suggested DDL
Get CREATE INDEX statements and query rewrites based on your actual table schemas and explain plans. Review the evidence, test the fix, and ship it.
Trusted by everyone from startups to the Fortune 500
Debug query latency with precision
Isolate the queries that matter with sorting by wait time, errors, latency, or call rate;filter by your own labels, instance, or schema.
See what each execution waited on with breakdowns by time by wait-event type (lock, I/O, network, and more), and inspect individual query samples instead of averages.
Understand how it ran with visual explain plans that highlight costly operations such as full table scans, alongside table schema and index details.
Catch regressions by tracking each query's performance over time to see when a deploy or data growth slowed it down.
See the database in context
Follow traces to queries and back by opening the trace behind a query sample or jumping from a slow database span to its matching query.
See which services depend on each database with the Knowledge Graph, which shows the services connected to every instance and the health issues detected across your stack, so you can tell whether a problem started in the database or upstream.
Spot resource contention and overlay query latency with CPU, memory, disk I/O, and cloud provider metrics.
No separate tool needed because the database data sits next to your existing dashboards, alerts, and telemetry, with no proprietary data silos.
Fix slow queries with AI-suggested indexes and rewrites
Get specific fixes as Grafana Assistant suggests CREATE INDEX statements and query rewrites from every query view.
See the evidence behind each suggestion, which is based on your actual table schemas and explain plans; get explanations on what it found, such as a full table scan, and the expected improvement
Stay in control: copy the change, test it, and ship it through your normal workflow. Nothing runs against your database automatically
Fewer DBA tickets as developers resolve routine query problems themselves andDBAs can focus on the complex ones
