Navicat Monitor

Navicat Monitor is an agentless remote monitoring tool that gives you the possibility to keep track of all your servers worldwide, whether you prefer working with MySQL, MariaDB or Percona Server. It's compatible with some popular cloud databases like Amazon RDS and Aurora, Google Cloud, Oracle Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.

The downloaded package installs a tiny utility that has to remain running in the background. It doesn't get in the way of your typical desktop activity thanks to the fact that it silently runs in the systray. As for the monitoring, it can be done from any installed web browser at the http://desktop-mbscpge:3000/ default address.

Before reaching that point, it's necessary to set up the initial configuration for the superuser profile, namely username, full name, password (and confirmation), email address, and mobile number. In the following step, you can specify repository database details like database type (MySQL, MariaDB or PostgreSQL), server address and port number, database name, username, and password.

The real-time monitoring panel contains an overview section, showing detailed information about each watched server. This includes used CPU and RAM, sent and received network packets, as well as log entries (e.g. started or stopped instance). The alerts can be sorted by severity and other criteria.

You can configure settings for alerts such as thresholds for critical and warning CPU levels, check out a query analyzer, and view replications. Colorful charts and detailed reports can be printed for closer inspection. Meanwhile, notifications can be sent to your email address, mobile or computer, depending on your preferences.

All aspects considered, Navicat Monitor provides a convenient, centralized solution for monitoring database servers worldwide. It comes bundled with practical options that can be easily configured.
