# Monitoring

- [Dashboards](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/dashboards.md)
- [MariaDB Server](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/dashboards/mariadb-server.md): Comprehensive dashboard for monitoring MariaDB Server instances, covering topology overviews, replication health, InnoDB metrics, query performance, and active connections.
- [MariaDB MaxScale](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/dashboards/mariadb-maxscale.md): Dedicated dashboard for monitoring MaxScale proxies, detailing service status, query routing efficiency, client connections, and resource usage across the proxy layer.
- [Node and Operating System](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/dashboards/node-and-operating-system.md): Monitors the underlying host infrastructure, providing detailed metrics for CPU utilization, memory consumption, disk I/O, and network throughput for each database node.
- [Database Fleet Overview](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/dashboards/database-fleet-overview-t-copy.md): High-level dashboard providing an aggregated view of the entire database fleet, highlighting overall health, critical alerts, and resource consumption across multiple topologies.
- [MariaDB Galera Cluster](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/dashboards/mariadb-galera-cluster.md): Extends standard server monitoring with Galera-specific metrics like flow control pauses, write conflicts, replication queue depth, and individual node cluster states.
- [Metrics](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/metrics.md): Overview of the metrics collected by Enterprise Manager, including MariaDB Server counters, MaxScale performance data, and node-level system resource utilization.
- [Export metrics](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/metrics/export-metrics.md): Explains two methods for exporting metrics: scraping the built-in Prometheus federation endpoint or configuring the agent to push data directly to OTLP-compatible external systems.
- [Alerts and Notifications](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/alerts-and-notifications.md): Overview of the integrated Grafana-based alerting engine used to detect critical conditions and dispatch notifications to various destinations.
- [SMTP Server Configuration](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/alerts-and-notifications/smtp-server-configuration.md): Instructions for configuring SMTP credentials and server details in the environment file to enable email alerts from the integrated alerting engine.
- [Built-in Alert Rules](/docs/tools/mariadb-enterprise-manager/usage/monitoring/alerts-and-notifications/built-in-alert-rules.md): Details the pre-configured rules for monitoring MariaDB Server, Galera Cluster, and system health, including sustained-duration triggers to prevent alert fatigue.
