Prometheus statistics
Typha can be configured to report a number of metrics through Prometheus. See the configuration reference for how to enable metrics reporting.
Metric reference
Typha specific
Typha exports a number of Prometheus metrics. The current set is as follows. Since some metrics are tied to particular implementation choices inside Typha we can’t make any hard guarantees that metrics will persist across releases. However, we aim not to make any spurious changes to existing metrics.
Name | Description |
---|---|
typha_breadcrumb_block | Count of the number of times Typha got the next Breadcrumb after blocking. |
typha_breadcrumb_non_block | typha_breadcrumb_non_block Count of the number of times Typha got the next Breadcrumb without blocking. |
typha_breadcrumb_seq_number | Current (server-local) sequence number; number of snapshot deltas processed. |
typha_breadcrumb_size | Number of KVs recorded in each breadcrumb. |
typha_client_latency_secs | Per-client latency. I.e. how far behind the current state is each client. |
typha_client_snapshot_send_secs | How long it took to send the initial snapshot to each client. |
typha_client_write_latency_secs | Per-client write. How long each write call is taking. |
typha_connections_accepted | Total number of connections accepted over time. |
typha_connections_active | Number of open client connections. |
typha_connections_dropped | Total number of connections dropped due to rebalancing. |
typha_kvs_per_msg | Number of KV pairs sent in each message. |
typha_log_errors | Number of errors encountered while logging. |
typha_logs_dropped | Number of logs dropped because the output stream was blocked. |
typha_next_breadcrumb_latency_secs | Time to retrieve next breadcrumb when already behind. |
typha_ping_latency | Round-trip ping latency to client. |
typha_updates_skipped | Total number of updates skipped as duplicates. |
typha_updates_total | Total number of updates received from the Syncer. |
Prometheus metrics are self-documenting, with metrics turned on, curl
can be used to list the metrics along with their help text and type information.
curl -s http://localhost:9091/metrics | head
