ctubbsii commented on issue #287: Support timely as an optional sink for metrics
URL: https://github.com/apache/fluo-muchos/issues/287#issuecomment-536366134
 
 
   I don't think we should do this, because the intent for the metrics is to 
have a quick and easy lightweight way to watch a Muchos cluster. Setting up 
Timely is not lightweight, and this is starting to scope creep well beyond the 
purpose of Muchos, which is for fast-and-easy cluster testing of Fluo (and 
Accumulo) during development. Is there a use case for using something like 
Timely for Fluo / Accumulo development? I can't imagine there would be.
   
   Remember, Muchos is *not* a general purpose cluster-deployment tool, and 
does not require all the features that might be useful in such a tool. It's 
purpose as an *internal* tool for use by Fluo (and Accumulo) developers, is 
very narrow, and adding more features like this dramatically increases the risk 
of bloating Muchos in a way that makes it more difficult for non-Ansible 
experts, non-EC2 experts, and non-Azure experts to maintain it for 
developing/testing Fluo (and Accumulo).
