Re: [Metering] schema and counter definitions

 

There was a swift talk at the design summit that is related to (a): http://etherpad.openstack.org/FolsomSwiftStatsd. There is a good summary in the referenced blog post: http://www.swiftstack.com/blog/2012/04/11/swift-monitoring-with-statsd/

It's also my understanding. Regarding swift, how would you suggest we
approach the problem ? I see two possible courses:

a) directly create something similar to nova
http://wiki.openstack.org/SystemUsageData for swift (i.e. a swift
blueprint and coding in swift ) so that there is no need to install a
metering agent for swift
b) create a swift plugin for a metering agent and when it proves
useful, port it to swift so that it is integrated and there is no
longer a need for a metering agent plugin

What do you think ?
I've no informed opinion on Swift, but I assume Swift is amenable to
work which helps with metering its resources

Cheers,
Mark.
