Overview

The Couchbase extension is designed to monitor Couchbase databases. It provides monitoring metrics at the cluster and node level.

Monitoring Cappella is handled by deploying the extension on an ActiveGate.

Get started

Set up monitoring

Virtual machine

If your Couchbase is running on a virtual machine directly, you will need to install OneAgent on that virtual machine to get started.

Kubernetes workload

If your Couchbase is running as a workload in Kubernetes, please refer to the Kubernetes deployment start guide.

Openshift workload

If your Couchbase is running as a workload in OpenShift, please refer to the OpenShift deployment start guide.

OpenTelemetry

If you are instrumenting Couchbase with OpenTelemetry then:

  1. Ensure that the OneAgent feature "OpenTelemetry Java Instrumentation agent support" is activated to get full tracing and metric insight (OneAgent version 1.237 or newer needed).
  2. Instrument the java client with OpenTelemetry.
  3. Ensure to store the span attributes.

Extension

Activate the Couchbase extension to get further metrics.

The Couchbase extension is designed to monitor Couchbase databases. It provides monitoring metrics at the cluster and node level.

The extension supports Capella, Couchbase's cloud database platform and Couchbase Server version 7+.

Details

Configuration

To configure the Couchbase Capella extension, add this extension and create a new Monitoring Configuration.

Successful configuration of the extension requires several corresponding settings in the Capella/Couchbase Server Admin UI. Below are guidelines for the required configurations.

Connection Hostname

Capella: This is the Capella Connection String.  In the Capella UI, go to the Connect tab on a Database and copy the full connection string.

Server: IP of a Couchbase Node. The Couchbase Node must be accessible from the ActiveGate the extension is running on.

User Credentials

Capella: The extension requires a set of Capella credentials (username / password) that has Read Access to All Buckets and All Scopes in your Database (as noted, the required external_stats_reader role is only granted when a Database Credential is given Read Access to all Buckets in a Database).  Credentials can be created in the Capella UI by going to Settings -> Database Access -> Create Database Access (see Couchbase's Configure Database Credentials)

Server: Create a user with Read-Only Admin permissions.

Security Certificate

The Security Certificate for your Database.  In the Capella UI, select the Database, go to Settings -> Security Certificate, and click on Copy.  This will give you a PEM-formatted text.

Allowed IP Addresses

Before any client can connect to a Capella Database, the client's IP address must be added to the Database's Allowed IP list. 

Note: For Allowed IP address, you must find the external IP address of the ActiveGate(s) you are running the extension on and add those IPs to the allowed IP address setting.

Compatibility information

  • Linux OS or Windows
  • Couchbase version 4.3+

The extension requires:

  • ActiveGate version 1.270+
  • Dynatrace version 1.270+
  • Couchbase version 7+

ReleaseDate

Full version history

This version contains a breaking change that will require recreation of monitoring configurations. This version has no new features for users who are currently monitoring Capella databases and no need for Capella users to upgrade at this time. Future versions will add new features and will require an upgrade and recreation of monitoring configurations.

  • Adds support for self-hosted clusters monitored remotely from ActiveGate
  • Improved first run experience. Adds Fastcheck that checks credentials and provides feedback in Extension app monitoring configuration logs
  • Improved handling of connection strings that lack ports. The extension will now determine if the cluster is self-hosted and assign a default port based on cluster type.
  • Adds the version of the Couchbase cluster to the metric metadata
  • Adds couchbase.sys_cpu_utilization_rate to match CPU metric provided by Couchbase admin UI
