Metric template

Metrics are defined using a YAML manifest with the following structure:

metrics:
  - name: "cpu_util"
    description: "cpu utilization"
    unit: "percent"
  - name: "mem_util"
    description: "memory utilization"
    unit: "percent"

and properties:

Supported units of measure

The supported units of measure for metrics are:

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).
