Description
https://github.com/prometheus-community/postgres_exporter/blob/master/queries.yaml
https://github.com/free/sql_exporter
This would allow Prometheus metrics, Grafana dashboards, and Kubernetes autoscaling events based on SQL queries. This could be useful for auto-scaling DelayedJob workers without modifying Rails applications.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked postgres_exporter queries.yaml and free/sql_exporter, then compare how either could expose SQL-query metrics for Prometheus. Determine whether the proposed metrics can support Grafana dashboards and Kubernetes autoscaling for DelayedJob workers without modifying Rails applications; the issue does not define a specific implementation or acceptance test.
