Micromegas - Scalable Observability

rust api documentation

Objectives

Low overhead instrumentation

20 ns / event in the calling thread, one additional thread for the preparation and upload to the server.

High frequency of events

Up to 100000 events / second for a single instrumented process.

Scalability of ingestion service

Scalable backend can accept data from millions of concurrent instrumented processes.

Tail sampling & ETL on demand

In order to keep costs down, most payloads will remain unprocessed until they expire.

Query using SQL

• Analytics built on https://arrow.apache.org/datafusion/
• Metadata stored in https://www.postgresql.org/

Status

Starting anew. I'm extracting the tracing/telemetry/analytics code from https://github.com/legion-labs/legion to jumpstart the new project. If you are interested in collaborating, please reach out.
