name : get-relational-database-metric-data.rst **To get metric data for a relational database** The following ``get-relational-database-metric-data`` example returns the count sum of the metric ``DatabaseConnections`` over the period of 24 hours (``86400`` seconds) between ``1570733176`` and ``1571597176`` for relational database ``Database1``. We recommend that you use a unix time converter to identify the start and end times. :: aws lightsail get-relational-database-metric-data \ --relational-database-name Database1 \ --metric-name DatabaseConnections \ --period 86400 \ --start-time 1570733176 \ --end-time 1571597176 \ --unit Count \ --statistics Sum Output:: { "metricName": "DatabaseConnections", "metricData": [ { "sum": 1.0, "timestamp": 1571510760.0, "unit": "Count" }, { "sum": 1.0, "timestamp": 1570733160.0, "unit": "Count" }, { "sum": 1.0, "timestamp": 1570992360.0, "unit": "Count" }, { "sum": 0.0, "timestamp": 1571251560.0, "unit": "Count" }, { "sum": 721.0, "timestamp": 1570819560.0, "unit": "Count" }, { "sum": 1.0, "timestamp": 1571078760.0, "unit": "Count" }, { "sum": 2.0, "timestamp": 1571337960.0, "unit": "Count" }, { "sum": 684.0, "timestamp": 1570905960.0, "unit": "Count" }, { "sum": 0.0, "timestamp": 1571165160.0, "unit": "Count" }, { "sum": 1.0, "timestamp": 1571424360.0, "unit": "Count" } ] }
