Setup the data source

Components configuration

Akamas reasons in terms of a system to be optimized and in terms of parameters and metrics of components of that system. To understand the link between metrics collected from LoadRunnerEnterprise through InfluxDB and a specific component, the LoadRunnerEnterprise provider looks up some properties in the components of a system:

  • loadrunnerenterprise

You can use this example to start building your component specification:

# Specification for a component, whose metrics should be collected by the Prometheus Provider
name: "WebApp1" # name of the component
description: "WebApp for payment services" # description of the component
properties:
  loadrunnerenterprise: ""
