Open Stack

My present employer is just starting with Openstack and we aren't using Ceilometer yet, but when I was at eBay we had a whole team trying to make it work and it was still terrible. I was very happy when I heard that the shitty old ceilometer was going away and would never be heard from again. As an operator, I want to see a clear path forward; a path that does not include going back to something that never worked properly.

If there's a choice between doing it the "right" way, and doing something easier, we all know that doing it the "right" way will be easier in the long run.

I'd like to hear from more Ceilometer users. What are they using 
Ceilometer for, and what long-term plans would be acceptable. There is a 
trade-off between adopting short-term workarounds that reintroduce 
performance issues vs. undergoing a complex migration to the "right" way 
of fixing this. Like for example there is little point in pushing 
Monasca/Ceilometer stack integration if most users say, like Catalyst 
Cloud seems to say, that they would rather have a slow performing 
Ceilometer API back.
