Hi there,
one of the biggest challenges for the telemetry stack is currently the state of gnocchi, which is... undefined/unfortunate/under-contributed/...?
Telemetry started long time ago as a simple component ceilometer, which was split into several components ceilometer, aodh, panko, and gnocchi. Julien wrote a story about this some time ago[1].
There has also been an attempt to fork gnocchi back to OpenStack[2].
To my knowledge, the original contributors are not paid anymore to work on gnocchi, and at the same time, moving on to do something else is totally fine.
However, I am not sure if we (in OpenStack Telemetry) should or could maintain in addition to the rest of the telemetry stack a time-series database. I'd like to discuss this during a call.
Matthias, I'm not sure I will have time to join the call. So hopefully, you understand that I prefer email (also because I wont be able to contribute to the project, so maybe joining the call would be overkill). Could you list the alternatives? If not using Gnocchi, what other backend would you use? As an operator I need a timeseries which is: - free software - HA - able to scale - packaged or packagable in my distro I don't know any time series db (apart from Gnocchi) that check all the bullets above. Do you? On 11/20/20 3:48 PM, Matthias Runge wrote:
If it works for you, let's use this bluejeans channel[4] for the discussion.
Gosh, reading that you'd be using bluejeans, then definitively, I will not be able to join the call... :/ Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
