How VTAdmin Works #

VTAdmin is a centralized, web-based interface that simplifies the management and monitoring of Vitess clusters by integrating closely with VTCtld instances. It provides a unified view of keyspaces, shards, and tablets, enabling administrators to monitor tablet health, manage multiple clusters, and control VReplication workflows such as Reshard and MoveTables. The interface includes query execution tools for performance analysis and debugging, featuring the embedded VTExplain tool to help users optimize SQL queries and understand execution plans. VTAdmin helps users and operators by facilitating efficient operations and effective management of distributed Vitess environments.
