**Note**: Vitess Operator–managed deployments generally do not keep tablet records in the topo between restarts, so this feature will not take effect in those environments.
+#### QueryThrottler Observability Metrics
+
+VTTablet now exposes new metrics to track QueryThrottler behavior.
+
+Four new metrics have been added:
+
+- **QueryThrottlerRequests**: Total number of requests evaluated by the query throttler
+- **QueryThrottlerThrottled**: Number of requests that were throttled
+- **QueryThrottlerTotalLatencyNs**: Total time each request takes in query throttling, including evaluation, metric checks, and other overhead (nanoseconds)
+- **QueryThrottlerEvaluateLatencyNs**: Time taken to make the throttling decision (nanoseconds)
+
+All metrics include labels for `Strategy`, `Workload`, and `Priority`. The `QueryThrottlerThrottled` metric has additional labels for `MetricName`, `MetricValue`, and `DryRun` to identify which metric triggered the throttling and whether it occurred in dry-run mode.
+
+These metrics help monitor throttling patterns, identify which workloads are throttled, measure performance overhead, and validate behavior in dry-run mode before configuration changes.

#### New `in_order_completion_pending_count` field in OnlineDDL outputs
OnlineDDL migration outputs now include a new `in_order_completion_pending_count` field. When using the `--in-order-completion` flag, this field shows how many migrations must complete before the current migration. The field is visible in `SHOW vitess_migrations` queries and `vtctldclient OnlineDDL show` outputs.
