Hi folks, relative newcomer here. :) I'm working on using Kubernetes to create 
a render farm for my company. One of the things I need to be able to do is 
measure machine utilization so that I can bill our customers. I looked into the 
heapster docs, but that doesn't seem to be the correct tool - it seems to be 
focused on real-time monitoring, whereas what I need to know is the total 
resource usage for a job that may last 10 hours or more. (More accurately, I 
want to know how much AWS is going to charge us, but I need to know it on a 
per-container basis, since multiple containers for multiple customers may be 
running on a single node.)

The approach I've been looking at is to get the docker stats by talking to the 
node directly. That is, given a job, query to find the pod metadata, then talk 
to the pod to get the docker stats for the container. I haven't quite gotten 
this to work yet.

Is there a better approach?
