You can use the cluster management feature of DAS to combine instances of the same database engine into a cluster, and then view the information about these instances such as performance trends, slow log trends, and global storage usage at the cluster level.
Types of database engines

- Redis
- MongoDB
- PostgreSQL
- PolarDB MySQL
