Use DescribeTopHotKeys to retrieve top hot keys - Database Autonomy Service - Alibaba Cloud - Database Autonomy Service

Queries the top 100 hot keys within a specified time period.

Operation description

A key is identified as a hot key if its QPS exceeds 3,000.

If you use an Alibaba Cloud SDK, ensure that the version of aliyun-sdk-core is 4.3.3 or later. We recommend using the latest version.
The DAS SDK version must be 1.0.2 or later.
When calling the DAS service with an SDK, set the region to cn-shanghai.
This operation applies only to the following Redis instances:
- The instance is an open source Redis instance or a Tair (Enterprise Edition) memory-optimized instance.
- The instance runs on the latest minor version.

Test

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.
API: The API that you can call to perform the action.
Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.
Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.
- For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.
- For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.
Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.
Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.
