Improve discovery of DataVerticle metrics #253
Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues
The Problem
There is 4 different data verticle metrics that can be enabled. These metrics will be collected for every single DataVerticle if the feature is enabled.
This may be fine for small installations, but running NeonBee with a large number of DataVerticles will produce a huge amount of metrics and clutter the monitoring system.
Desired Solution
Two ideas to improve the discovery of the metrics:
- instead of making the verticle name part of the metric name, a micrometer tag could be used. this would reduce the number of metrics to 4, but you would still be able to filter for a specific verticle (e.g. when creating a chart).
- add a
neonbee.prefix to each metric. The monitoring system might contain quite a lot of metrics from different sources with overlapping names. The prefix would make it easier to search for the neonbee metrics, if you don't recall the exact name. This should be a convention for all metrics sent by neonbee.
