Citus x AI DBA Workbench: Open-source monitoring & deep insights into your Postgres infrastructure

Most PostgreSQL monitoring tools have no concept of a Citus cluster - they see a coordinator and worker nodes as separate, unrelated servers. The pgEdge AI DBA Workbench treats them as what they are: a distributed system that needs to be watched as a whole. This video walks through the setup and what you get out of it: adding your Citus coordinator and worker nodes as a single cluster, then watching the collector start building a picture of your system. Across all your nodes, the Workbench tracks replication state, vacuum activity, query performance, WAL throughput, and connection health using 34 built-in probes and three-tier anomaly detection that catches the kinds of issues that don't show up as a single spiking metric until something's already wrong. Ellie, the AI assistant built into the Workbench, is what kicks in when an alert fires. She's not just surfacing what changed - she reads the alert in the context of your full cluster state and walks you through a specific resolution: not a generic suggestion, but rather a query plan to inspect, a configuration to tune, or an index to add. The Workbench connects over a standard Postgres connection, with no agents to install on your nodes and no changes to how your cluster runs today. Open source under the PostgreSQL License.
