Live360
Datasentinel offers a direct connection feature to PostgreSQL instances, enabling real-time retrieval of information.
Live360 exclusively establishes direct connections with PostgreSQL instances, setting it apart as the sole module with this capability.
The remaining analysis dashboards acquire data from the repository.
Users of Datasentinel have the flexibility to enable or disable this specific feature on an individual basis.
Introduction to Live360° feature

You have the option to select either a specific database or all databases, allowing you to then filter for active sessions and display the associated queries.
From left to right, the above indicators are
- Number of active sessions
- Number of connected sessions
- Database activity graph : Are the sessions on CPU, Waiting, … ?
- Number of currently blocked sessions
By simply clicking on a session, you can delve into its details and gain a comprehensive understanding.
Current Sessions
The interface displays both blocking and blocked sessions. You can access further session details by clicking on a specific session.
Blocking Sessions
From the interface, you have the capability to terminate sessions directly.
For the ability to terminate a session, the user currently accessing the interface needs to hold the read write or admin privilege, and the monitoring user within the PostgreSQL cluster must be granted the role pg_signal_backend
Opt for your desired database, select the schema, then choose the relation type between
- Table
- Index
- Materialized view
- Foreign table
- View
- Extended Statistics
- Extension
- Function / Proc
- Sequence
- TOAT table
Example of displayed elements for a table
- Columns statistics
- Partitions
- Indexes
- Constraints

Relation Explorer
For accessing certain internal statistics (such as
pg_statistic_ext and pg_stats), the PostgreSQL user used by Datasentinel must possess specific rights and privileges// Grant example
GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA pg_catalog TO datasentinel;
Select your database and generate an execution plan from any query.
You can choose the ANALYZE option to execute the query in order to have its overall and step by step execution time statistics.
ANALYZE option is only available for SELECT statements.
When choosing ANALYZE, specify a timeout to set the maximum allowed execution time of the query
The execution plan viewer makes it easy and quick to understand each step.
Execution Plan
The output can be text or json

Progress Reporting
Disk usage lets you explore the space consumed by relations.
You have the option to either observe the space usage for individual databases or for all of them.
Result can be grouped based on:
- relations
- schemas
- tablespaces
Disk Usage
Cache usage lets you explore the space consumed by relations in memory (shared_buffers)
For utilizing this functionality, it's necessary to install the pg_buffercache extension across all databases within your instance.
