This is the documentation for the latest PMM 2 release. For details, see the PMM 2.44.0 release notes and the PMM 2.44.0-1 update.

Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM) is an open-source database monitoring, management, and observability solution for MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB.

It allows you to observe the health of your database systems, explore new patterns in their behavior, troubleshoot them and perform database management operations no matter where they are located on-prem or in the cloud.

Active development for PMM 2 has ended

PMM 2 is no longer actively developed. For the latest features, security updates, and improvements, we strongly recommend using PMM 3.

Here’s how the home page looks on our free, live demo system.

PMM runs in the cloud, on-prem, or across hybrid platforms. It’s supported by our legendary expertise in open source databases, and by a vibrant developer and user community.

A minimal PMM set-up comprises one server and a client agent on every system you want to monitor.
