Include database name in performance bar
What does this MR do?
As part of &5759 we're preparing the GitLab application to handle connections to multiple databases. As such we want to improve our observability to understand these multiple databases.
This MR just adds the database name to the performance bar details.
Unfortunately the default rails database config name is primary
.
Eventually we will force this to be main
and it will be distinct from
the new ci
database. This does create a little bit of confusion now as
we also use the words primary/replica
to distinguish between our
read/write and read-only database servers. This means you may see
"Replica" next to "Config name: primary" which could be confusing. I
hope that the usage of "Config name" should help to disambiguate. I also
added a feature flag for this to be less disruptive.
