Monitoring

Janus uses OpenCensus to collect and export metrics. OpenCensus supports several exporters, which are: - Datadog - Prometheus - Stackdriver

Currently only Prometheus exporter is available in Janus.

This can be configured via the configuration file or environment variable:

# Stats / Metric Collection

[stats]
  # Backend system used to export collected metrics
  #
  # Valid Values: "datadog", "prometheus", or "stackdriver"
  #
  # Default: None
  #
  Exporter: "prometheus"
