Create Metric for Product Variations greater than recommended

Open DavidLambauer opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

Magento recommends having products with less than 50 variations to prevent possible performance issues. For example, a configurable product with more than 50 children is considered not recommended and should be avoided.

To keep track of those complex product variations, we should create a new metric named magento_complex_product_variations_above_recommended_level.

Where does this recommendation come from? That's a really unrealistic limit for most shops

The Magento Commerce Edition offers a Tool called SWAT(Side-Wide-Analysis-Tool). I actually don't know if this is a commerce feature or a cloud feature. Nevertheless, this tool offers a couple of recommendations for your shop and the one described in this issue just came up.

This is how it looks

I read the articles referenced in that post and funnily there are no words about that recommendation. Might be a non-public thing or so

SWAT is commerce cloud only. Thank you, that is... interesting!

Just found another page within the SWAT Tool referring to Soft-Limits.

I'd guess that these numbers come from some internal testings or so. It's definitely good to know and even better to track with Prometheus/Grafana.
