Metrics Service Integrations¶
Overview¶
A distributed cloud applicaiton typically rely on other cloud services. For end-to-end observability, it is important to be able to monitor KPIs (key performance indicator) from these services. This topic describes the various integrations metrics service currently support.
Prerequisites¶
User is required to create a metrics service. User may enable collection of metrics from cloud services while setting up metrics streaming.
Enable Cloud Services Metrics Collection¶
User may use caeops metrics install-agent with --enable-cloud-services <coma-sperated-list> to enable or disable metrics collection from a cloud service. For example,
caeops metrics install-agent --enable-cloud-services aws-ec2,aws-dynamodb,aws-apigateway --service-name demo-metrics-service --cloud aws --source kubernetes --kubernetes-cluster-name demo-cluster
Supported Cloud Services¶
Metrics service offers a rich set of integrations with cloud services.

Application Runtime Environments¶
Metrics service supports the following application environments:
- Distributed microservices style cloud applications - Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS)
- Containerized web applications - Docker with EC2 as application runtime environments
- Serverless containerized web applications - Fargate with AWS ECS
- Serverless functions - Lambda
Refer to Supported Environment section of Setup Metrics Streaming topic for details.
