Overview

Constructs a service interface object. Each API operation is exposed as a function on service.

Service Description

Amazon RDS Performance Insights enables you to monitor and explore different dimensions of database load based on data captured from a running DB instance. The guide provides detailed information about Performance Insights data types, parameters and errors.

When Performance Insights is enabled, the Amazon RDS Performance Insights API provides visibility into the performance of your DB instance. Amazon CloudWatch provides the authoritative source for AWS service-vended monitoring metrics. Performance Insights offers a domain-specific view of DB load.

DB load is measured as Average Active Sessions. Performance Insights provides the data to API consumers as a two-dimensional time-series dataset. The time dimension provides DB load data for each time point in the queried time range. Each time point decomposes overall load in relation to the requested dimensions, measured at that time point. Examples include SQL, Wait event, User, and Host.

Sending a Request Using PI

var pi = new AWS.PI();
pi.describeDimensionKeys(params, function (err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Locking the API Version

In order to ensure that the PI object uses this specific API, you can construct the object by passing the apiVersion option to the constructor:

var pi = new AWS.PI({apiVersion: '2018-02-27'});

You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions using the pi service identifier:

AWS.config.apiVersions = {
  pi: '2018-02-27',
  // other service API versions
};

var pi = new AWS.PI();

});

Parameters:

params (Object) (defaults to: {}) —
- ServiceType — (String)
  The AWS service for which Performance Insights will return metrics. The only valid value for ServiceType is RDS.
  Possible values include:
  - "RDS"
- Identifier — (String)
  An immutable, AWS Region-unique identifier for a data source. Performance Insights gathers metrics from this data source.
  
  To use an Amazon RDS instance as a data source, you specify its DbiResourceId value. For example, specify db-FAIHNTYBKTGAUSUZQYPDS2GW4A
- StartTime — (Date)
  The date and time specifying the beginning of the requested time series data. You must specify a StartTime within the past 7 days. The value specified is inclusive, which means that data points equal to or greater than StartTime are returned.
  
  The value for StartTime must be earlier than the value for EndTime.
- EndTime — (Date)
  The date and time specifying the end of the requested time series data. The value specified is exclusive, which means that data points less than (but not equal to) EndTime are returned.
  
  The value for EndTime must be later than the value for StartTime.
- Metric — (String)
  The name of a Performance Insights metric to be measured.
  
  Valid values for Metric are:
  - db.load.avg - a scaled representation of the number of active sessions for the database engine.
  - db.sampledload.avg - the raw number of active sessions for the database engine.
  If the number of active sessions is less than an internal Performance Insights threshold, db.load.avg and db.sampledload.avg are the same value. If the number of active sessions is greater than the internal threshold, Performance Insights samples the active sessions, with db.load.avg showing the scaled values, db.sampledload.avg showing the raw values, and db.sampledload.avg less than db.load.avg. For most use cases, you can query db.load.avg only.
- PeriodInSeconds — (Integer)

  - 60 (one minute)
  - 300 (five minutes)
  - 3600 (one hour)
  - 86400 (twenty-four hours)
  If you don't specify PeriodInSeconds, then Performance Insights chooses a value for you, with a goal of returning roughly 100-200 data points in the response.
- GroupBy — (map)
  A specification for how to aggregate the data points from a query result. You must specify a valid dimension group. Performance Insights returns all dimensions within this group, unless you provide the names of specific dimensions within this group.

Parameters:
- err (Error) —
  the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.
- data (Object) —
  the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:
  - AlignedStartTime — (Date)
    The start time for the returned dimension keys, after alignment to a granular boundary (as specified by PeriodInSeconds). AlignedStartTime will be less than or equal to the value of the user-specified StartTime.
  - AlignedEndTime — (Date)

Returns:

(AWS.Request) —
a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

getDimensionKeyDetails(params = {}, callback) ⇒ `AWS.Request`

Get the attributes of the specified dimension group for a DB instance or data source. For example, if you specify a SQL ID, GetDimensionKeyDetails retrieves the full text of the dimension db.sql.statement associated with this ID. This operation is useful because GetResourceMetrics and DescribeDimensionKeys don't support retrieval of large SQL statement text.

Service Reference:

- RequestedDimensions — (Array<String>)
  A list of dimensions to retrieve the detail data for within the given dimension group. For the dimension group db.sql, specify either the full dimension name db.sql.statement or the short dimension name statement. If you don't specify this parameter, Performance Insights returns all dimension data within the specified dimension group.

Callback (callback):

function(err, data) { ... }

Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.
Context (this):
- (AWS.Response) —
  the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.
Parameters:
- err (Error) —
  the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.
- data (Object) —

    - db.load.avg - a scaled representation of the number of active sessions for the database engine.
    - db.sampledload.avg - the raw number of active sessions for the database engine.
    If the number of active sessions is less than an internal Performance Insights threshold, db.load.avg and db.sampledload.avg are the same value. If the number of active sessions is greater than the internal threshold, Performance Insights samples the active sessions, with db.load.avg showing the scaled values, db.sampledload.avg showing the raw values, and db.sampledload.avg less than db.load.avg. For most use cases, you can query db.load.avg only.
  - GroupBy — (map)
    A specification for how to aggregate the data points from a query result. You must specify a valid dimension group. Performance Insights will return all of the dimensions within that group, unless you provide the names of specific dimensions within that group. You can also request that Performance Insights return a limited number of values for a dimension.
    - Group — required — (String)
      The name of the dimension group. Valid values are:
      
      db - The name of the database to which the client is connected (only Aurora PostgreSQL, RDS PostgreSQL, Aurora MySQL, RDS MySQL, and MariaDB)

    - Limit — (Integer)
      The maximum number of items to fetch for this dimension group.
  - Filter — (map<String>)
    One or more filters to apply in the request. Restrictions:
    - Any number of filters by the same dimension, as specified in the GroupBy parameter.
    - A single filter for any other dimension in this dimension group.
- StartTime — (Date)
  The date and time specifying the beginning of the requested time series data. You can't specify a StartTime that's earlier than 7 days ago. The value specified is inclusive - data points equal to or greater than StartTime will be returned.
  
  The value for StartTime must be earlier than the value for EndTime.
- EndTime — (Date)
  The date and time specifying the end of the requested time series data. The value specified is exclusive - data points less than (but not equal to) EndTime will be returned.
  
  The value for EndTime must be later than the value for StartTime.
- PeriodInSeconds — (Integer)
  The granularity, in seconds, of the data points returned from Performance Insights. A period can be as short as one second, or as long as one day (86400 seconds). Valid values are:
  - 1 (one second)
  - 60 (one minute)
  - 300 (five minutes)
  - 3600 (one hour)
  - 86400 (twenty-four hours)
  If you don't specify PeriodInSeconds, then Performance Insights will choose a value for you, with a goal of returning roughly 100-200 data points in the response.
- MaxResults — (Integer)
  The maximum number of items to return in the response. If more items exist than the specified MaxRecords value, a pagination token is included in the response so that the remaining results can be retrieved.
- NextToken — (String)
  An optional pagination token provided by a previous request. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the token, up to the value specified by MaxRecords.

Callback (callback):

function(err, data) { ... }

Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.
Context (this):
- (AWS.Response) —
  the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.
Parameters:
- err (Error) —
  the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.
- data (Object) —
  the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:
  - AlignedStartTime — (Date)
    The start time for the returned metrics, after alignment to a granular boundary (as specified by PeriodInSeconds). AlignedStartTime will be less than or equal to the value of the user-specified StartTime.
  - AlignedEndTime — (Date)
    The end time for the returned metrics, after alignment to a granular boundary (as specified by PeriodInSeconds). AlignedEndTime will be greater than or equal to the value of the user-specified Endtime.
  - Identifier — (String)
    An immutable, AWS Region-unique identifier for a data source. Performance Insights gathers metrics from this data source.
    
    To use a DB instance as a data source, you specify its DbiResourceId value - for example: db-FAIHNTYBKTGAUSUZQYPDS2GW4A
  - MetricList — (Array<map>)
    An array of metric results,, where each array element contains all of the data points for a particular dimension.
    
    Key — (map)
    The dimension(s) to which the data points apply.
    
    Metric — required — (String)
    The name of a Performance Insights metric to be measured.
    
    Valid values for Metric are:
    
    db.load.avg - a scaled representation of the number of active sessions for the database engine.
    
    db.sampledload.avg - the raw number of active sessions for the database engine.
    
    If the number of active sessions is less than an internal Performance Insights threshold, db.load.avg and db.sampledload.avg are the same value. If the number of active sessions is greater than the internal threshold, Performance Insights samples the active sessions, with db.load.avg showing the scaled values, db.sampledload.avg showing the raw values, and db.sampledload.avg less than db.load.avg. For most use cases, you can query db.load.avg only.
    
    Dimensions — (map<String>)
    The valid dimensions for the metric.
    
    DataPoints — (Array<map>)
    An array of timestamp-value pairs, representing measurements over a period of time.
    
    Timestamp — required — (Date)
    The time, in epoch format, associated with a particular Value.
    
    Value — required — (Float)
    The actual value associated with a particular Timestamp.
  - NextToken — (String)
    An optional pagination token provided by a previous request. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the token, up to the value specified by MaxRecords.

Returns:

(AWS.Request) —
a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.
