As a curiosity, are there any ballpark numbers around the volume of 
notifications ceilometers can handle?  Thinking about large scale swift 
deployments I expect to see thousands or even 10s of thousands of events per 
second.  And that's with today's technology.  Looking longer term I wouldn't be 
surprised to see 100s or even millions per second.  And that's just swift.  I'd 
think other services not yet invented will have their own firehoses of data to 
contribute.

I'm just thinking out loud and did not push that through, but I wonder if we 
should not try to use the oslo.messaging notifier middleware for that. It would 
be more standard (as it's the one usable on all HTTP
pipelines) and rely on notification and generates events, as anyway, HTTP 
requests are events.
Then it'd be up to Ceilometer to handle those notifications like it does for 
the rest of OpenStack.
