That's a rather simplistic view and a slippery slope.
Spending time on a pretty dashboard is one of the easiest ways to get drawn into vanity metrics and fapalytics.
Proper monitoring is important, but that usually means completely different things for different departments.
The CEO doesn't need to see database performance charts because he can't make sense of them anyway. Likewise the admin doesn't need to see conversion charts because they are not relevant to his work.
Trying to squeeze unrelated data into a common dashboard often leads to false correlations and entire herds of shaved yaks.
You provided a nice example for a false correlation yourself: The conversion-rate almost never relates to database performance in any meaningful way.
