Metrics Tab and Single Node Tabs
The Metrics tab provides real-time, per-second time series charts for all nodes in a Room. It helps you visualize, explore, and troubleshoot metrics across your entire infrastructure in one place.
You can also view single-node dashboards, which offer the same charts but are focused on a single node. You can access these dashboards from most places in the Netdata UI, often by clicking the name of a node.
From the Metrics tab, you can also access:
- The Integrations tab
- Metric Correlations to identify related metrics and uncover patterns across your infrastructure

How the Dashboard is Organized
The dashboard displays various charts organized by their context. At the beginning of each section, there is a predefined arrangement of charts that provides an overview for that particular group of metrics.
The available chart types and grouping options allow flexible data visualization for troubleshooting and analysis.

Use the chart arrangement at the start of each section to quickly identify patterns, spikes, or anomalies before diving into detailed chart filtering.
