SQL statistics for Aurora MySQL

Aurora MySQL collect SQL statistics only at the digest level. No statistics are shown at the statement level.

Digest statistics for Aurora MySQL

Performance Insights collects SQL digest statistics from the events_statements_summary_by_digest table. The events_statements_summary_by_digest table is managed by your database.

The digest table doesn't have an eviction policy. When the table is full, the Amazon Web Services Management Console shows the following message:

Performance Insights is unable to collect SQL Digest statistics on new queries because the table events_statements_summary_by_digest is full. Please truncate events_statements_summary_by_digest table to clear the issue. Check the User Guide for more details.

In this situation, Aurora MySQL doesn't track SQL queries. To address this issue, Performance Insights automatically truncates the digest table when both of the following conditions are met:

In the Amazon CLI, check the source of a parameter value by running the describe-db-parameters command.
