Summary

Release Note

Rationale

Terminology

  • Meter == definition of the measurement (name,ownership,resource,metadata) - synonyms (metric)
  • Sample == the actual data values (value,unit,timestamp) synonyms (measurement)
  • Resource is an openstack object created for a user (eg. instance, volume)
  • User is an openstack user auth'ed by keystone
  • Source is the origin of a sample (usually "openstack").
  • Gauge is a type of Meter absolute measurement (car: revs per minute)
  • Counter is a type of Meter that counts upwards (car: distance travelled - assume you don't reverse a lot:-)

We need another term here for derived and/or aggregated samples. AWS calls them statistics, we _could_ call them Derived. Bikeshedding here:)
