Helps to collect and analyze metrics and is useful for monitoring user engagement

If you are using a product managed by a cloud provider, such as AWS or Google Cloud, you benefit from various management tools. For instance, AWS offers CloudWatch for tracking metrics, while Google Cloud provides Time Series Insights. These tools are managed by the cloud providers. As an end user, you primarily need to pay for the service, and the cloud provider handles most of the management tasks. If you choose to use open-source tools like Prometheus, you will need to manage them yourself. It's a trade-off between convenience and cost. Opting for a managed service means you pay more but have less management overhead. On the other hand, using open-source solutions can reduce costs but requires you to handle the entire management of the infrastructure and database, such as ensuring uptime and provisioning resources. TiDB Cloud offers a reliable, managed solution that ensures availability and performance without the hassle of self-management.
