do u have a plan to make pmm-client docker container like pmm-server ?
i think it makes deploy easy.
we recommend run pmm-client locally on server with database, because in this case
- Query Analytics can read queries from slow log (not performance schema).
this approach generate less monitoring load. - node_exporter can get local OS statistics (like CPU, HDD load, memory paging etc).
OS statistics is very important for successful performance debug.
it’s local mysql - pmm env, i mean, aws ec2 (coreOS) - rds env .
if you are using percona server docker container, we are going to add pmm-client inside our official Percona Server for MySQL docker container.
see https://jira.percona.com/browse/PMM-627
RDS situation will be fixed (I think we’ll start mysqld_exporter for RDS inside pmm-server container)
you can follow https://jira.percona.com/browse/PMM-434
