Watcher Metering collects system metrics and publishes them to a store. To do so, it is composed of two elements:
- The
Agent
who collects the desired metrics and sends it to a publisher. TheAgent
is meant to run on each monitored host (container, VM, ...) - The
Publisher
who gathers measurements from one or more agent and pushes them to the desired store. The currently supported stores are Riemann (for CEP), Ceilometer and Riemann.
This project is part of the Watcher solution. For more information on Watcher, you can also refer to its OpenStack wiki page.
