The main portal webpage has links to all bundled applications. It also shows the PostgreSQL status, and allows starting/stopping the clusters, backup, and log reports.
For managing clusters and services, Cockpit is used.
Prometheus is a metric based monitoring system for servers and services. It collects metrics from configured targets at given intervals, evaluates rule expressions, displays the results, and can trigger alerts if some condition is observed to be true.
Grafana bundles metrics collected by Prometheus and presents them in a dashboard.
pgAdmin4 is a management tool for PostgreSQL to help DBAs execute many different tasks. It provides user management, DDL functionality, an interactive SQL shell, and more.
The Elephant Shed comes with a preinstalled backup solution, pgBackRest.
A pgBadger report is created for each PostgreSQL instance.
Shell In A Box is a convenient web based terminal.
tmate is a fork of the popular terminal multiplexer tmux, tweaked for instant terminal sharing. It is preconfigured to connect to a relay server and enables the user to share the current terminal with a third party using a secret token.
