Package stats contains support for OpenCensus stats recording.
|
|
|
|
OpenCensus allows users to create typed measures, record measurements,
|
|
aggregate the collected data, and export the aggregated data.
|
|
|
|
Measures
|
|
|
|
A measure represents a type of metric to be tracked and recorded.
|
|
For example, latency, request Mb/s, and response Mb/s are measures
|
|
to collect from a server.
|
|
|
|
Each measure needs to be registered before being used. Measure
|
|
constructors such as Int64 and Float64 automatically
|
|
register the measure by the given name. Each registered measure needs
|
|
to be unique by name. Measures also have a description and a unit.
|
|
|
|
Libraries can define and export measures for their end users to
|
|
create views and collect instrumentation data.
|
|
|
|
Recording measurements
|
|
|
|
Measurement is a data point to be collected for a measure. For example,
|
|
for a latency (ms) measure, 100 is a measurement that represents a 100ms
|
|
latency event. Users collect data points on the existing measures with
|
|
the current context. Tags from the current context are recorded with the
|
|
measurements if they are any.
|
|
|
|
Recorded measurements are dropped immediately if user is not aggregating
|
|
them via views. Users don't necessarily need to conditionally enable/disable
|
|
recording to reduce cost. Recording of measurements is cheap.
|
|
|
|
Libraries can always record measurements, and end-users can later decide
|
|
on which measurements they want to collect by registering views. This allows
|
|
libraries to turn on the instrumentation by default.
