Metric template
Metrics are defined using a YAML manifest with the following structure:
and properties:
name
string
no spaces are allowed
TRUE
The name of the metric
unit
string
The unit of measure of the metric
description
string
TRUE
A description characterizing the metric
Supported units of measure
The supported units of measure for metrics are:
Temporal units
Units of infomation
Others
percent
Notice that supported units of measure are automatically scaled for visualization purposes. In particular, for units of information, Akamas uses a base 2 scaling for bytes, i.e., 1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes, 1 megabyte = 1024 kilobytes, and so on. Other units of measure are only scaled up using millions or billions (e.g., 124000000 custom units become 124 Mln custom units).
