Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 21:41:19 UTC

Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ceilometer/+spec/paas-event-format-for-ceilometer.

Description:

The general mechanism for setting up Ceilometer collection for a new service  has been to either create a targeted agent or use the existing service APIs to meter these systems. While this approach has worked for the existing set of services, it will run into a several problems as the number of PaaS and SaaS services that need to be metered expand. This blueprint provides a proposal for standardizing the format of integrations so that Ceilometer can consume metering data from any conforming application without doing any custom integration or even a code change.

Comment 3 Eoghan Glynn 2014-10-08 10:57:40 UTC

This RFE does not require explicit testing as the output was non-functional, and not customer-facing.

The task was to design a set of standard event formats that PaaS providers would be encouraged to adhere to, and to get agreement from a representative selection of such projects in the OpenStack ecosystem.

This was codified in the following document:

  https://github.com/openstack/ceilometer/blob/master/doc/source/format.rst

So there is no explicit QA required here.
