Once upon a time… Because I love telling tales @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
This talk is about a tale… A true one nevertheless @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
And as in most tales It begins with a mission @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
And a band of heroes Engulfed into the adventure @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
They fight against mishaps And all kind of foes @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
They build mighty fortresses Pushing the limits of possible @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
And defend them day after day Against all odds @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
But we don’t know yet the end Because this tale isn’t finished yet @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
It begins with a mission Build a metrics platform for OVH @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
A long time ago… @LostInBrittany @PierreZ

We need to have insights Observability : Understand how it works @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
OVH decided go metrics-oriented @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
A metrics platform for OVH For all OVH @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
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 @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
What is OVH Metrics? Managed Cloud Platform for Time Series @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
OVH monitoring story We had lots of partial solutions… @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
OVH monitoring story One Platform to unify them all What should we build it on? @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
OVH monitoring story Including a really big @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
OpenTSDB drawbacks OpenTSDB RowKey Design ! @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
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 @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
OpenTSDB other flaws ● ● ● ● ● Compaction (or append writes) /api/query : 1 endpoint per function? Asynchronous Unauthenticated … @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Scaling OpenTSDB @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Metrics needs First need: To be massively scalable @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Analytics is the key to success Fetching data is only the tip of the iceberg @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Analysing metrics data To be scalable, analysis must be done in the database, not in user’s computer @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Metrics needs Second need: To have rich query capabilities @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Enter Warp 10… Open-source Time series Database @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
More than a Time Series DB Warp 10 is a software platform that ● Ingests and stores time series ● Manipulates and analyzes time series @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Manipulating Time Series with Warp 10 A true Time Series analysis toolbox ○ Hundreds of functions ○ Manipulation frameworks ○ Analysis workflow @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Manipulating Time Series with Warp 10 A Time Series manipulation language WarpScript @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Did you say scalability? From the smallest to the largest… @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
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 @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
OVH Observability Metrics Platform @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Building an ecosystem From Warp 10 to OVH Metrics @LostInBrittany @PierreZ

Even medical research… Metrics’ Pattern Detection feature helped Gynaecology Research to prove patterns on perinatal mortality @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Use cases families • • • • Billing Monitoring IoT (e.g. bill on monthly max consumption) ……………………………………………..……. (APM, infrastructure,appliances,…) …..…………………………… (Manage devices, operator integration, …) …………………………………………….…………………. Geo Location (Manage localized fleets) ……..………………… @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
Use cases • • • • • • DC Temperature/Elec/Cooling map Pay as you go billing (PCI/IPLB) GSCAN Monitoring ML Model scoring (Anti-Fraude) Pattern Detection for medical applications @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
SREing Metrics With a great power comes a great responsibility @LostInBrittany @PierreZ
