cloudsql/WARN/2023_003

Cloud SQL instance’s memory usage does not exceed 90%

Product: CloudSQL
Rule class: WARN - Something that is possibly wrong

Description

If you have less than 10% memory in database/memory/components.cache and database/memory/components.free combined, the risk of an OOM event is high.

Remediation

Calculate the maximum memory usage by your MySQL database to select the appropriate instance type for your MySQL database. After you analyze the memory usage by different components, set the appropriate flag in your MySQL database. Lastly, if the memory usage is still high and you feel running queries and flag values are optimized, then consider increasing the instance size to avoid OOM.
