  • Metrics measure server response time in microseconds for successfully executed requests
  • Key areas to investigate for high latency include:
    • Long-running commands
    • Request queueing time
    • Data persistence time
    • Memory utilization
    • Data tiering performance
  • Recommended monitoring approaches:
    • Monitor p50 latency for typical use cases
