Metrics v1.3.0

ℹ️
Edera metrics are currently in Alpha. New metrics are expected to be added, and existing metrics are subject to change.

Edera exposes a set of metrics to provide an overview of the health and performance of Edera and the infrastructure it runs on.

Available metrics

The following metrics are exposed by Edera:

Zone metrics

Zone metrics encapsulates metrics obtained from an Edera Zone.

Metric Description Type Labels
zone_cpu_usage_percent CPU usage in percent, in the range 0-100. gauge cpu
zone_id
k8s_namespace
k8s_pod
zone_cpu_usage_seconds_total CPU time used, in seconds, per cpu. counter cpu
zone_id
k8s_namespace
k8s_pod
zone_create_timestamp_milliseconds Time when zone was created as a Unix timestamp with millisecond resolution. gauge zone_id
k8s_namespace
k8s_pod
zone_memory_total_bytes Total number of bytes of memory allocated to the zone. gauge zone_id
k8s_namespace
zone_memory_free_bytes Number of bytes of memory allocated to the zone and currently unused. gauge zone_id
k8s_namespace
zone_memory_used_bytes Number of bytes of memory allocated to the zone and currently in use. gauge zone_id
k8s_namespace
zone_ready_timestamp_milliseconds Time when a zone is ready for use as a Unix timestamp with millisecond resolution. gauge zone_id
k8s_namespace
k8s_pod
zones Current number of zones, per state. gauge state

Hypervisor metrics

Hypervisor metrics encapsulates metrics obtained from the hypervisor of an Edera zone.

Metric Description Type Labels
hypervisor_cpu_usage_seconds_total CPU time used, in seconds, per zone. counter zone_id
hypervisor_memory_max_bytes Maximum memory allowed, in bytes, per zone. gauge zone_id
hypervisor_memory_total_bytes Total memory currently allocated, in bytes, per zone. gauge zone_id
hypervisor_memory_outstanding_bytes Memory owed but not yet allocated, in bytes, per zone. gauge zone_id
hypervisor_vcpus_online Number of virtual CPUs currently online, per zone. gauge zone_id

Host metrics

Host metrics encapsulates metrics obtained from the host of Edera, also referred to as dom0.

Metric Description Type Labels
host_cpu_usage_percent CPU usage in percent, in the range 0-100. gauge cpu
host_cpu_usage_seconds_total CPU time used, in seconds, per cpu, per mode. counter cpu
mode
host_memory_total_bytes Total number of bytes of memory allocated to the host. gauge
host_memory_free_bytes Number of bytes of memory allocated to the host and currently unused. gauge
host_memory_used_bytes Number of bytes of memory allocated to the host and currently in use. gauge

Health check metrics

Health check metrics encapsulates metrics which provide an insight into the health of Edera services.

Metric Description Type Labels
health_check_total Total number of health checks performed, labeled by service and result status (success or failure). counter service
status

Label examples

Exposed metrics may contain labels, which provides additional context, such as the zone a metric is being populated from, and allows for more detailed querying and filtering.

Label Description Example
cpu Name of the CPU. cpu="cpu1" or cpu="1"
k8s_namespace Name of the Kubernetes namespace the zone is in. k8s_namespace="default"
k8s_pod Kubernetes pod ID the zone is related to. k8s_pod="nginx-deployment-7d6c54b4c6-g84cl
mode Mode of the CPU. mode="idle" or mode="user"
service Name of the Edera service. service="protect-cri or service="protect-daemon
state State of the Edera zone. state="ready" or state="failed"
status Status returned from the Edera service during a health check. status="success" or status="failed"
zone_id ID of the Edera zone. zone_id="7568edad-3a34-47e3-b605-36ede54a9aab"

Collect metrics

Edera metrics are exposed by in the Prometheus format, by default on http://127.0.0.1:3035/metrics. If an alternative address is preferred, it can be provided to the metrics-http-listen-addr flag on the protect-orchestrator service. Metrics can be viewed directly via the /metrics endpoint, or scraped by third-party tooling.
