   ## [SIP] Proposal for Network Chart Labels
   
   ### Motivation
   
   We currently use superset for graphing network traffic flows. This leads to 
charts having large numerical suffixes such as k, m etc. It would be nice to be 
able to label Bytes transferred as kB, MB, GB, TB etc as well as flows as kb/s, 
Mb/s, Gb/s etc. Furthermore, we could also support IEC (base 2 instead of base 
10) ie 1 kB = 1024 Bytes. These additions would greatly benefit folks using 
Superset for network monitoring.
   
   ### Proposed Change
   
   This appears to a relatively straightforward addition with the way the 
number formatting is written. I would just add a new number format factory that 
would implement a labeling type for Bytes, bits, bits/s and bytes/s. We could 
throw in the IEC as well. 
   
   ### New or Changed Public Interfaces
   
   This should have minimal impact. The new labeling would be added to the 
Format options in the chart controls. 
   
   ### New dependencies
   
   I would not anticipate needing any new dependencies. 
   
   ### Migration Plan and Compatibility
   
   I would not anticipate changes.
   
   ### Rejected Alternatives
   
   Not quite sure this is applicable.
