Once upon a time… Because I love telling tales Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
This talk is about a tale… A true one nevertheless Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
And as in most tales It begins with a mission Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
And a band of heroes Engulfed into the adventure Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
They fight against mishaps And all kind of foes Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
They build mighty fortresses Pushing the limits of possible Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
And defend them day after day Against all odds Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
But we don’t know yet the end Because this tale isn’t finished yet Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
It begins with a mission Build a metrics platform for OVH Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? To make better decisions by using numbers Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? We want our code to add value Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? We need to make better decisions about our code Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? Code adds value when it runs not when we write it Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? We need to know what our code does when it runs Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? We can’t do this unless we measure it Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? We have a mental model of what our code does Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? This representation can be wrong Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? We can’t know until we measure it Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Find the bottleneck ‘’ “The app is slow.” - User Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Find the bottleneck ‘’ “The app is slow.” - User “The page takes 500ms!” - Ops Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Find the bottleneck ? SQL Query? Template Rendering? Session Storage? Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Find the bottleneck ? We don’t know Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
With observability: SQL Query………………………….53ms Template Rendering……….1ms Session Storage……………315ms Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
With observability: SQL Query………………………….53ms Template Rendering……….1ms Session Storage……………315ms Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? We improve our mental model by measuring what our code does Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? We use our mental model to decide what to do Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? A better mental model makes us better at deciding what to do Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? Better decisions makes us better at generating value Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Why do we need metrics? Measuring make your App better Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
It began with a mission Build a metrics platform for OVH Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
A metrics platform for OVH For all OVH Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Building OVH Metrics One Platform to unify them all, One Platform to find them, One Platform to bring them all and in the Metrics monitor them Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
What is OVH Metrics? Managed Cloud Platform for Time Series Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
OVH monitoring story We had lots of partial solutions… Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
OVH monitoring story One Platform to unify them all What should we build it on? Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
OVH monitoring story Including a really big Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
OpenTSDB drawbacks OpenTSDB RowKey Design ! Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
OpenTSDB Rowkey design flaws ● .regex. => full table scans ● High cardinality issues (Query latencies) We needed something able to manage hundreds of millions time series OpenTSBD didn’t scale for us Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
OpenTSDB other flaws ● ● ● ● ● Compaction (or append writes) /api/query : 1 endpoint per function? Asynchronous Unauthenticated … Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Scaling OpenTSDB Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Metrics needs First need: To be massively scalable Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Analytics is the key to success Fetching data is only the tip of the iceberg Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Analysing metrics data To be scalable, analysis must be done in the database, not in user’s computer Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Metrics needs Second need: To have rich query capabilities Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Enter Warp 10… Open-source Time series Database Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
More than a Time Series DB Warp 10 is a software platform that ● Ingests and stores time series ● Manipulates and analyzes time series Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Manipulating Time Series with Warp 10 A true Time Series analysis toolbox ○ Hundreds of functions ○ Manipulation frameworks ○ Analysis workflow Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Manipulating Time Series with Warp 10 A Time Series manipulation language WarpScript Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
Did you say scalability? From the smallest to the largest… Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
More Warp 10 goodness ● Secured & multi tenant ● Synchronous (transactions) ● In memory Index ● Better Performance ● No cardinality issues ● Better Scalability ● Lockfree ingestion ● Versatile ● WarpScript Query Language (standalone, distributed) ● Support more data types Monitoring OVH @LostInBrittany
