Updated DB rules for oracle, mysql, mssql and postgres by sjyothi54 · Pull Request #3264 · newrelic/entity-definitions

sjyothi54 · 2026-09-25T10:45:00Z

Relevant information

Rolls out server.address/server.port to prod as the entity identifier for ORACLEDBINSTANCE, MYSQLNODE, POSTGRESQLINSTANCE, and MSSQLINSTANCE, with each DB type falling back to its existing legacy identifier for customers still on older receiver binaries. This keeps entity creation consistent across old and new binary versions.

ARB Jira ticket:
https://new-relic.atlassian.net/browse/NR-624118

The value of the attribute marked as identifier will be unique and valid.

…ss/port missing The metric, log, and DbServer-prefixed synthesis rules for INFRA-MYSQLNODE identify/name by a server.address:server.port composite. mysqlreceiver builds without the useOTelSemconv gate don't emit those attributes, only the derived mysql.instance.endpoint, so those entities would go unsynthesized. Guards the composite rules with server.address/server.port present:true, and adds a fallback rule per event path (metric, log, DbServer) that matches when server.address is absent and identifies/names by the older mysql.instance.endpoint attribute instead. Staging and prod. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

-          field: hostAddress
-        - tagKeys: ["host.port"]
-          field: hostPort
+        - tagKeys: ["server.address"]


Are you sure this is working for old oracle binaries? The rule infra_oracledbinstance_host_name_nrfork does not generate server.x

@sseif-nr The relation can be established using the shared endpoint tag, see relationships/synthesis/APM-APPLICATION-to-DATABASE.yml's apmCallsGenericDatabase rule, which matches Oracle Datastore metrics via the generic DATABASE candidate category on the endpoint tag key, so both old-binary (host.address) and new-binary (server.address) entities remain reachable there. As a manual fallback, tags can also be added directly to an entity to satisfy a candidate match if needed.

+        otel.library.version:
+          entityTagName: instrumentation.version
+        server.address:


Line 66 states that this attribute cannot be present.

@sseif-nr Removed these tags as those are not being used

No concerns from the API side with it. The final ack needs to come from an EP engineer to assert technical sanity.
