# Semantic Conventions for Database Metrics
**Status**: [Experimental][DocumentStatus]
The conventions described in this section are specific to SQL and NoSQL clients.
**Disclaimer:** These are initial database client metric instruments
and attributes but more may be added in the future.

## Connection pools
The following metric instruments describe database client connection pool operations.
### Metric: `db.client.connections.usage`
This metric is [required][MetricRequired].
<!-- semconv metric.db.client.connections.usage(metric_table) -->
| Name | Instrument Type | Unit (UCUM) | Description |
| -------- | --------------- | ----------- | -------------- |
| `db.client.connections.usage` | UpDownCounter | `{connection}` | The number of connections that are currently in state described by the `state` attribute |
