How to collect RDS MySQL metrics

To collect both standard RDS metrics and native MySQL metrics, users can access RDS metrics via Amazon CloudWatch and query server status variables, the performance schema, or use a monitoring tool with a CloudWatch integration. The process involves connecting to the database instance remotely using tools like SSH, querying server status variables, enabling the performance schema, or using a monitoring tool that integrates with MySQL. These methods provide insights into MySQL performance, allowing users to set up alerts and visualize metrics for a comprehensive view of their database instance's health.
