Thanks for your comments @mattyb149 - I just pushed a commit that should
address everything.
Regarding the record approach you suggested. Even though I really like the
idea, I'm not sure to see how to define a valid avro schema for the
specification used by the Ambari collector API
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBARI/Metrics+Collector+API+Specification):
````json
{
"metrics": [
{
"metricname": "AMBARI_METRICS.SmokeTest.FakeMetric",
"appid": "amssmoketestfake",
"hostname": "ambari20-5.c.pramod-thangali.internal",
"timestamp": 1432075898000,
"starttime": 1432075898000,
"metrics": {
"1432075898000": 0.963781711428,
"1432075899000": 1432075898000
}
}
]
}
````
How would we manage the 'metrics' part where field names are timestamps?
