Richard Wagner commented on CASSANDRA-7273:
-------------------------------------------
It is similar to, but not exactly the same as CASSANDRA-6539. That one is
asking for keyspace scoped metrics. This one is asking for global ColumnFamily
metrics - all keyspaces, all column families. If we have keyspace scoped
metrics, then we still have the same problems where we have to either publish
all keyspace metrics or do the aggregation ourselves.

> Key: CASSANDRA-7273
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7273
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Richard Wagner
> Priority: Minor
>
> It would be very useful to have cassandra expose ColumnFamily metrics that
> span all column families. A general purpose cassandra monitoring system built
> up around the current ColumnFamily metrics really only has a couple of
> choices right now: publish metrics for all column families or fetch metrics
> for all column families, aggregate them and then publish the aggregated
> metrics. The first can be quite expensive for the downstream monitoring
> system and the second is a piece of work that it seems is better pushed into
> cassandra itself.
> Perhaps these global ColumnFamily metrics could be published under a name of:
> org.apache.cassandra.metrics:type=(ColumnFamily|IndexColumnFamily),name=(Metric
> name)
> (Same as existing ColumnFamily metrics, but with no keyspace or scope.)
