JSON Metrics

This content covers the statistics and metrics collected and made available by Sync Gateway
Sync Gateway’s statistics and metrics provide under-the-hood data on the performance, resource utilization and health of it nodes. This is increasingly important as deployments scale to support a large numbers of connected mobile and edge components.

JSON format

Use the _expvars method to request these metrics:

Example 1. Metrics in JSON format

curl -X GET "http://localhost:4986/_expvar" -H "accept: application/json"

The response is a JSON object with a nested schema.

The statistics detailed in this schema are reset at each node restart — they are not persisted. All totals, counts, and averages are the values accrued since the last node restart unless otherwise specified.

Description: The total number of changes requested.
Use Case: This metric can be used to calculate the latency of requested changes:

changes request latency = request_changes_time / request_changes_count

request_changes_time

Description
Use Case: This metric can be used to calculate the latency of requested changes:

changes request latency = request_changes_time / request_changes_count

rev_processing_time

Description: The total amount of time processing rev messages (revisions) during pull revision.
Use Case: This metric can be used with rev_send_count to calculate the average processing time per revision:

average processing time per revision = rev_processing_time / rev_send_count

rev_send_count

Description: The total number of rev messages processed during replication.
Use Case: This metric can be used with rev_processing_time to calculate the average processing time per revision:

average processing time per revision = rev_processing_time / rev_send_count.

rev_send_latency

Description: The total amount of time between Sync Gateway receiving a request for a revision and that revision being sent.

In a pull replication, Sync Gateway sends a /_changes request to the client and the client responds with the list of revisions it wants to receive.

So, rev_send_latency measures the time between the client asking for those revisions and Sync Gateway sending them to the client.
Use Case: This metric gives the time taken to respond to a / changes request.
Constraints

The derived value includes latency associated with processing other revisions in the same batch.

Measuring time from the /_changes response means that this stat will vary significantly depending on the changes batch size A larger batch size will result in a spike of this stat, even if the processing time per revision is unchanged.

A more useful stat might be the average processing time per revision:

average processing time per revision = rev_processing_time] / rev_send_count

doc_push_count

Description: The total number of documents pushed.

propose_change_count

Description

The total number of changes and-or proposeChanges messages processed since node start-up.

Use Case

The propose_change_count stat can be useful when:

Assessing the number of redundant requested changes being pushed by the client.

Do this by comparing the propose_change_count value with the number of actual writes num_doc_writes, which could indicate that clients are pushing changes already known to Sync Gateway.
Identifying situations where push replications are unexpectedly being restarted from zero.

P2P synchronizations will typically show a higher incidences of rejected proposed changes.

propose_change_time

Description: The total time spent processing changes and/or proposeChanges messages.
Use Case: The propose_change_time stat can be useful in diagnosing push replication issues arising from potential bottlenecks changes and-or proposeChanges processing.
Contraints: The propose_change_time is not included in the write_processing_time.

sync_function_count

Use Case: The {sync_function_count_ stat is useful in assessing the usage of the sync_function, when used in conjunction with the sync_function_time.

sync_function_time

Description

The total time spent evaluating the sync_function.

Use Case

The sync_function_time stat can be useful when:

Troubleshooting excessively long push times, where it can help identify potential sync_function bottlenecks (for example, those arising from complex, or inefficient, sync_function design
Assessing the overall contribution of the sync_function processing to overall push replication write times.

write_processing_time

Description

Total time spent processing writes. Measures complete request-to-response time for a write.

Use Case

The write_processing_time stat can be useful when:

Determining the average time per write:

Troubleshooting slow push replication, in which case it ought to be considered in conjunction with sync_function_time.

Metrics by replication

The metrics collated and reported here relate only to replications run using the inter-Sync Gateway replication.

These metrics refer to Sync Gateway replications only; Couchbase Lite replications are not included.

Per_replication

(Inter-Sync Gateway)

This per_replication group header encompasses all the stats for each inter-Sync Gateway replication involving its owning database.

It comprises an array of one or more $replname objects, each of which represents the statistics collected and recorded against the specified $replname (replication_id).

$replname

This object comprises the stats collected and recorded for the inter-Sync Gateway replication named $replname (which equates to a replication_id). The same structure is used to return statistics from Inter-Sync Gateway and SG Replicate replications, but not all items are populated by each version.

sgr_docs_checked_sent

Description

The total number of documents checked for changes since replication started. This represents the number of potential change notifications pushed by Sync Gateway.

Constraints

This is not necessarily the number of documents pushed, as a given target might already have the change.
Used by Inter-Sync Gateway and SG Replicate

Values

Continuous replication:

The value is true for the duration of the replication, and also once it has caught up (i.e is in the idle state). The value is false if the replication is explicitly cancelled.
One-shot replication

The value is true for the duration of the replication, and then false when it has completed or if it is cancelled.

Use Case

This metric can be useful when analyzing replication history, and to filter by active replications.

sgr_num_docs_failed_to_push

Description: The total number of documents that failed to be pushed since replication started.

Used by Inter-Sync Gateway and SG Replicate

sgr_num_docs_pushed

Description: The total number of documents that were pushed since replication started.

Used by Inter-Sync Gateway and SG Replicate

sgr_num_attachments_pushed

Description: The total number of attachments that were pushed since replication started.

sgr_num_attachment_bytes_pushed

Description: The total number of bytes in all the attachments that were pushed since replication started.

sgr_num_attachments_pulled

Description: The total number of attachments that were pulled since replication started.

sgr_num_attachment_bytes_pulled

Description: The total number of bytes in all the attachments that were pulled since replication started.

sgr_num_docs_pulled

Description: The total number of documents that were pulled since replication started.

sgr_num_docs_purged

Description: The total number of documents that were purged since replication started.

sgr_num_docs_failed_to_pull

Description: The total number of document pulls that failed since replication started.

sgr_push_conflict_count

sgr_push_rejected_count

Description: The total number of pushed documents that were rejected since replication started.

Description: The total number of documents that were purged since replication started.

sgr_deltas_recv

Description: The total number of documents that were purged since replication started.

sgr_deltas_requested

Description: The total number of deltas requested

sgr_deltas_sent

Description: The total number of deltas sent

sgr_conflict_resolved_local_count

Description: The total number of conflicting documents that were resolved successfully locally (by the active replicator)

sgr_conflict_resolved_remote_count

Description: The total number of conflicting documents that were resolved successfully remotely (by the active replicator)

sgr_conflict_resolved_merge_count

Description: The total number of conflicting documents that were resolved successfully by a merge action (by the active replicator)

sgw_conflict_skipped_error

Description: The total number of documents that were skipped during sync because of an error in conflict resolution
