# Metrics

The Metrics dashboard centralizes Prometheus metrics from all connected Composer instances, allowing for easy overview and filtering.

## Metrics

Please refer to [Extended Prometheus Metrics](/v1/docs/extended-prometheus-metrics) for an overview of all available metrics.

## Filters

By default, all metrics - from all connected Composer instances - are shown.

Use the filters described below to filter and search the metrics.

All filters can be applied in conjunction, filtering is done left to right.

| Filter | Description | Type | Note |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| System Label | Filters log entries based on the unique identifier for a Composer instance (set in Composer) | Multi-select | Note that ALL system labels that have metrics for a specific time range are available, even if a specific instance is currently not running |
| Version | Filters log entries based on the Composer instance version | Multi-select |  |
| Time range | Filters log entries based on a time range | Datetime | For optimal performance - it is recommended to use the **shortest applicable time range** when filtering the metrics. |

### Using the filters - an example

All filters can be combined. The filtering is done "left to right", i.e first based on `System Label` and then `Version`.

Assume we want to compare the CPU power usage percentage of two Composer instances with system labels

- `Studio-3-SMC`
- `Studio-2-WEB`.

Start by filtering on `System Label` and select both `Studio-3-SMC` and `Studio-2-WEB`

For this example, we can leave `Version: All` - since it is irrelevant.

The resulting view makes it easier to analyze and compare.

Assuming something interesting happened at this point, it is possible to:

1. Click and drag to highlight a section in the timeseries - setting the timerange - to give a "zoomed in-view".
2. Check the logs for anything unusual (click the `Logs` shortcut button in the top right to go directly to the Logs dashboard with the filters preserved)

1. If server stats are enabled for the hosts - Click the `Server` shortcut button in the top right to go directly to the Server dashboard.
