Hi Wesley

I'm starting studies with Apache jclouds. So, I plan to collect data
from the vcpu and memory each instance of an OpenStack cloud. The
example "CloudWatch-basics" available on GitHub can be used to
OpenStack clouds? It seems that can only be used for EC2 clouds.

The CloudWatch implementation in jclouds is an API (see [1]), so in principle it should be possible to point it an any endpoint the supports the same operations, even if that endpoint is not provided by AWS.

From what I can see (and the OpenStack experts on this list will have a much more qualified opinion ;-)), the only component in the OpenStack ecosystem that claims to be CloudWatch-compliant is Synaps [2], which is in the category "Related projects".

Heat seems to have a "CloudWatch-like" interface [3], but that is only a minimal implementation, so I'm not sure to what extent we would expect that to work with jclouds.

Regards
