Could you explain a bit more why the metric names might differ? Are there any technical constraints? If possible, it'd be nice to keep them consistent. |

The Tempo service graphs panel currently uses the metrics generated by the Grafana Agent. The Agent generates the following metrics related to service graphs:
With Tempo we want to generate the same metrics and use the same panel in Grafana, but the metric names will likely be slightly different.
Our design proposal describes our implementation of this processor here: https://github.com/kvrhdn/tempo/blob/kvrhdn/metrics-generator-proposal/docs/design-proposals/2022-01%20Metrics-generator.md#service-graph
I can imagine we might opt to generate metrics like
tempo_service_graph_request_total
and maybe evengrafanacloud_traces_service_graph_request_total
.Would it possible to make the prefix configurable? I.e. Grafana uses metrics like
<prefix>_service_graph_request_total
in which<prefix>
defaults totraces
and can be configured in the UI.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
