CPU Limit Metric
CPU Limit Metric
Aptible will now include a “CPU Limit” metric in the metrics delivered through metric drains so users can understand app and database container performance better.
In the past, Aptible only offered the General Purpose container profile. Since this was standard across all containers, users could easily calculate the CPU limit based on the fixed CPU-to-RAM ratio. The release of RAM and CPU-Optimized container profiles, each with unique CPU-to-RAM ratios, introduced a new need for a CPU Limit metric.
You can compare the existing CPU Usage metric with the new CPU Limit metric to monitor when your app or database containers are nearing their CPU limit, and scale accordingly. However, if CPU Isolation is disabled, the container will have no CPU limit, and the CPU Limit metric will return 0
. If you have not enabled CPU Isolation, we highly recommend doing so, as you may experience unpredictable performance in its absence. If CPU Isolation is enabled, the metric returns the allocated CPU per millisecond. For example, a CPU limit of 1
in the dashboard will be reflected as 1000
by the metric, or a CPU limit of .5
in the dashboard will be reflected as 500
by the metric. Please contact Aptible Support if you have any questions before the release.
Please note: as part of this change set, it became necessary to change the host
tag to host_name
for referencing the Container Hostname (Short Container ID).. Any pre-built queries on customer metrics platforms which rely on the host
tag may need to be changed to reference host_name
instead.
