Query Explanation

The rule uses irate(mysql_global_status_questions[1m]) to compute the per‑second increase of the MySQL Questions counter over the most recent minute (essentially the instantaneous QPS). The alert fires whenever this calculated query‑per‑second rate exceeds 10,000, indicating a sudden overload of MySQL traffic.
