Slow Query Statement Monitoring

Scenario

The SQL statement query in ClickHouse is slow because the conditions such as partitions, where conditions, and indexes of SQL statements are set improperly. As a result, the overall performance of the database is affected. To solve this problem, MRS provides the function of monitoring slow ClickHouse query statements.

Ongoing Slow Queries

You can query information about slow SQL statements that are being executed but do not return any result.

• Procedure

  For versions earlier than MRS 3.2.0, Log in to FusionInsight Manager and choose Cluster > Services > ClickHouse. On the displayed page, click the Query Management tab and then the Ongoing Slow Queries tab.

  Log in to FusionInsight Manager of MRS 3.2.0 or later, click Cluster, choose Services > ClickHouse, click Logic Cluster, and click the name of the target logical cluster. On the displayed page, choose Query Management > Ongoing Slow Queries.

• Parameters
