I plan to change the backend in 2 steps
1. Implement the new query protocol and make all old query to use new query
kernel
2. Add sources for metrics receivers or fetchers, which +高洪涛@skywalking
<[email protected]> leads that part, considering Prometheus as the first
priority. At the same time, I will work with Pivotal Micrometer team[1].
Hope I could make SkyWalking java ecosystem/agent works with that too.

>> Hi Dev team
>>
>> We have a good bi-weekly meeting yesterday. After the thinking and
>> discussion with Qiuxia(our UI committer), Hongtao Gao(PMC) and Bas van
>> Beek(Zipkin core maintainer).
>> I want to add these features to SkyWalking 8.
>> 1. Support customizable dashboard, users could add metrics dashboard by
>> using metrics name and entity type. So, any new metrics in the OAL could be
>> visualized directly. The prototype design will provide later, you could
>> consider it as a native version grafana page.
>> 2. Metrics network interface provided for
>> service/instance/endpoint dimensionalities.
>> 3. Prometheus integration, we could accept or fetch metrics from the
>> Prometheus, and use OAL to analyze those metrics.
>>
>> The deep discussion including online meetings is welcome, I could set up
>> one for people interested.
>> And I want to add this into SkyWalking 8, one side, give more time to the
>> agent team(PHP, .net, and nodejs are not ready yet) to follow new protocol,
>> the other is we could have a more clear milestone of 8 as a totally new
>> version.
>>
>> Right now, I will lead on this whole thing, +高洪涛@skywalking
>> <[email protected]> will deal with
>> Prometheus/OpenMetrics/OpenTelemetry metrics APIs. +Fan Fine
>> <[email protected]> will lead at the UI side. The timeline of this
>> should be one month.
>>
>>
>> WDYT? And if any of you decide to join this new feature development,
>> especially for PMC/Committer, please let me know. This is a challenge and
>> an important new feature.
