+title: Fluo Metrics
+version: 1.0.0-incubating
+---
+
+A Fluo application can be configured (in [fluo.properties]) to report
metrics. When metrics are
+configured, Fluo will report some 'default' metrics about an application
that help users monitor its
+performance. Users can also write code to report 'application-specific'
metrics from their
+applications. Both 'application-specific' and 'default' metrics share the
same reporter configured
+by [fluo.properties] and are described in detail below.
+
+## Configuring reporters
+
+Fluo metrics are not published by default. To publish metrics, configure a
reporter in the 'metrics'
+section of [fluo.properties]. There are several different reporter types
(i.e Console, CSV,
+Graphite, JMX, SLF4J) that are implemented using [Dropwizard]. The choice
of which reporter to use
+depends on the visualization tool used. If you are not currently using a
visualization tool, there
+is [documentation][grafana] for reporting Fluo metrics to Grafana/InfluxDB.
+
+## Metrics names
+
+When Fluo metrics are reported, they are published using a naming scheme
that encodes additional
+information. This additional information is represented using all caps
variables (i.e `METRIC`)
+below.
+
+Default metrics start with `fluo.class` or `fluo.system` and have
following naming schemes:
+
+ fluo.class.APPLICATION.REPORTER_ID.METRIC.CLASS
+ fluo.system.APPLICATION.REPORTER_ID.METRIC
+
+Application metrics start with `fluo.app` and have following scheme:
+
+ fluo.app.REPORTER_ID.METRIC
+
+The variables below describe the additional information that is encoded in
metrics names.
+
+1. `APPLICATION` - Fluo application name
+2. `REPORTER_ID` - Unique ID of the Fluo oracle, worker, or client that is
reporting the metric.
+ When running in YARN, this ID is of the format `worker-INSTANCE_ID` or
`oracle-INSTANCE_ID`
+ where `INSTANCE_ID` corresponds to instance number. When not running
in YARN, this ID consists
+ of a hostname and a base36 long that is unique across all fluo
processes.
+3. `METRIC` - Name of the metric. For 'default' metrics, this is set by
Fluo. For 'application'
+ metrics, this is set by user. Name should be unique and avoid using
period '.' in name.
+4. `CLASS` - Name of Fluo observer or loader class that produced metric.
This allows things like
+ transaction collisions to be tracked per class.
+
+## Application-specific metrics
+
+Application metrics are implemented by retrieving a [MetricsReporter] from
an [Observer], [Loader],
+or [FluoClient]. These metrics are named using the format
`fluo.app.REPORTER_ID.METRIC`.
+
+## Default metrics
+
+Default metrics report for a particular Observer/Loader class or
system-wide.
+
+Below are metrics that are reported from each Observer/Loader class that
is configured in a Fluo
+application. These metrics are reported after each transaction and named
using the format
+`fluo.class.APPLICATION.REPORTER_ID.METRIC.CLASS`.
+
+* tx_lock_wait_time - [Timer]
+ - Time transaction spent waiting on locks held by other transactions.
+ - Only updated for transactions that have non-zero lock time.
+* tx_execution_time - [Timer]
+ - Time transaction took to execute.
+ - Updated for failed and successful transactions.
+ - This does not include commit time, only the time from start until
commit is called.
+* tx_with_collision - [Meter]
+ - Rate of transactions with collisions.
+* tx_collisions - [Meter]
+ - Rate of collisions.
+* tx_entries_set - [Meter]
+ - Rate of row/columns set by transaction
+* tx_entries_read - [Meter]
+ - Rate of row/columns read by transaction that existed.
+ - There is currently no count of all reads (including non-existent
data)
+* tx_locks_timedout - [Meter]
+ - Rate of timedout locks rolled back by transaction.
+ - These are locks that are held for very long periods by another
transaction that appears to be
+ alive based on zookeeper.
+* tx_locks_dead - [Meter]
+ - Rate of dead locks rolled by a transaction.
+ - These are locks held by a process that appears to be dead according
to zookeeper.
+* tx_status_`<STATUS>` - [Meter]
+ - Rate of different ways (i.e `<STATUS>`) a transaction can terminate
+
+Below are system-wide metrics that are reported for the entire Fluo
application. These metrics are
+named using the format `fluo.system.APPLICATION.REPORTER_ID.METRIC`.
+
+* oracle_response_time - [Timer]
+ - Time each RPC call to oracle for stamps took
+* oracle_client_stamps - [Histogram]
+ - Number of stamps requested for each request for stamps to the server
+* oracle_server_stamps - [Histogram]
+ - Number of stamps requested for each request for stamps from a client
+* worker_notifications_queued - [Gauge]
+ - The current number of notifications queued for processing.
+* transactor_committing - [Gauge]
+ - The current number of transactions that are working their way
through the commit steps.
+
+Histograms and Timers have a counter. In the case of a histogram, the
counter is the number of times
+the metric was updated and not a sum of the updates. For example if a
request for 5 timestamps was
+made to the oracle followed by a request for 3 timestamps, then the count
for `oracle_server_stamps`
+would be 2 and the mean would be (5+3)/2.
