Load Balancer Metrics
Load Balancer Metrics is currently in Limited Availability. Metrics are automatically available for all customers with access to Load Balancers.
Load Balancer Metrics provide comprehensive insights into the throughput of your load balancers. These metrics help you monitor traffic patterns, analyze connection behavior, and understand data flow through your load balancers. The following key metrics are collected in 30-second intervals for a period of 30 days for each load balancer.
| Metrics | Definition | Suggested Query |
|---|---|---|
| Outbound Packets | The number of packets transmitted by the load balancer. | rate(crusoe_elb_out_packets[5m]) |
| Inbound Packets | The number of packets received by the load balancer. | rate(crusoe_elb_in_packets[5m]) |
| Bytes Out | The total bytes transmitted by the load balancer. | rate(crusoe_elb_bytes_out[5m]) |
| Bytes In | The total bytes received by the load balancer. | rate(crusoe_elb_bytes_in[5m]) |
| Active Flows | The number of currently active connections through the load balancer. | crusoe_elb_active_flows |
| New Flows | The number of new connections established through the load balancer. | rate(crusoe_elb_new_flows[5m]) |
Load Balancer Metrics are available by default for all load balancers—no agent installation is required. They're accessible via a PromQL API, Telemetry Conduit, and Crusoe MCP. Console UI support will be available in a future release.
By default, queries return metrics for all load balancers within a project. To query metrics for a specific load balancer, add a label selector to your query:
crusoe_elb_active_flows{elb_name="my-load-balancer"}
