This Elastic integration collects and parses the Server metrics from CouchDB so that the user could monitor and troubleshoot the performance of the CouchDB instances.
This integration uses http metricbeat module to collect above metrics.
This integration has been tested against CouchDB version 3.1 and CouchDB version 3.2.2.
In order to ingest data from CouchDB, you must know the host(s) and the administrator credentials for the CouchDB instance(s).
Host Configuration Format: http[s]://username:password@host:port
Example Host Configuration: http://admin:changeme@localhost:5984
To mask the password in the Hosts connection string, remove the username and password from the string. Then, set up the Hosts field with only the host address (localhost:5984 in the example) and any additional connection parameters. Finally, use the username and password fields under advanced options for configuration.
This is the server data stream.
