    Event Severity

    Each event that Capella Columnar emits includes a severity level. The following event severity levels are available:

    Severity Description

    Info

    Informational events like creating and deleting clusters.

    Events with an info severity range from user activities to regular database operation tasks.

    Warning

    Unexpected issues that affect performance or cause other problems that might need intervention.

    Events with a warning severity often indicate a database is trending towards more critical thresholds.

    Critical

    Availability affecting events that require immediate intervention.

    Most events with a critical severity occur due to database resource usage exceeding critical utilization thresholds.

    Event Tags

    Each event in Capella Columnar has one or more tags. Tags categorize events and allow you to filter them. The following tags are available:

    Tag Description

    Alert

    Events that indicate degraded database performance, availability, or both.

    Availability

    Events for the creation and deletion of databases and their related resources.

    Billing

    Events that can affect billing, such as the creation and deletion of resources.

    Maintenance

    Events relating to scheduled or on-demand maintenance tasks, like backup and restore.

    Performance

    Events that signal performance-affecting conditions.

    Security

    Events related to Capella Columnar UI or database access, like the invitation of a new user or the creation of new database credentials.
