Overview

Package sampler contains all the logic of the agent-side trace sampling

Currently implementation is based on the scoring of the "signature" of each trace Based on the score, we get a sample rate to apply to the given trace

Current score implementation is super-simple, it is a counter with polynomial decay per signature. We increment it for each incoming trace then we periodically divide the score by two every X seconds. Right after the division, the score is an approximation of the number of received signatures over X seconds. It is different from the scoring in the Agent.

Since the sampling can happen at different levels (client, agent, server) or depending on different rules, we have to track the sample rate applied at previous steps. This way, sampling twice at 50% can result in an effective 25% sampling. The rate is stored as a metric in the trace root.

Types

type DynamicConfig

type DynamicConfig struct {
	// RateByService contains the rate for each service/env tuple,
	// used in priority sampling by client libs.
	RateByService RateByService
}

DynamicConfig contains configuration items which may change dynamically over time.

func NewDynamicConfig

func NewDynamicConfig() *DynamicConfig

NewDynamicConfig creates a new dynamic config object which maps service signatures to their corresponding sampling rates. Each service will have a default assigned matching the service rate of the specified env.

type ErrorsSampler

type ErrorsSampler struct{ ScoreSampler }

ErrorsSampler is dedicated to catching traces containing spans with errors.

func NewErrorsSampler

func NewErrorsSampler(conf *config.AgentConfig) *ErrorsSampler

NewErrorsSampler returns an initialized Sampler dedicate to errors. It behaves just like the the normal ScoreEngine except for its GetType method (useful for reporting).

type NoPrioritySampler

type NoPrioritySampler struct{ ScoreSampler }

NoPrioritySampler is dedicated to catching traces with no priority set.

func NewNoPrioritySampler

func NewNoPrioritySampler(conf *config.AgentConfig) *NoPrioritySampler

NewNoPrioritySampler returns an initialized Sampler dedicated to traces with no priority set.

type PrioritySampler

type PrioritySampler struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

PrioritySampler computes priority rates per tracerEnv, service to apply in a feedback loop with trace-agent clients. Computed rates are sent in http responses to trace-agent. The rates are continuously adjusted in function of the received traffic to match a targetTPS (target traces per second). In order of priority, the sampler will match a targetTPS set remotely (remoteRates) and then the local targetTPS.

func NewPrioritySampler

func NewPrioritySampler(conf *config.AgentConfig, dynConf *DynamicConfig) *PrioritySampler

NewPrioritySampler returns an initialized Sampler

func (*PrioritySampler) Sample

func (s *PrioritySampler) Sample(now time.Time, trace *pb.TraceChunk, root *pb.Span, tracerEnv string, clientDroppedP0sWeight float64) bool

Sample counts an incoming trace and returns the trace sampling decision and the applied sampling rate

func (*PrioritySampler) Start

func (s *PrioritySampler) Start()

Start runs and block on the Sampler main loop

func (*PrioritySampler) Stop

func (s *PrioritySampler) Stop()

Stop stops the sampler main loop

type RareSampler

type RareSampler struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

RareSampler samples traces that are not caught by the Priority sampler. It ensures that we sample traces for each combination of (env, service, name, resource, error type, http status) seen on a top level or measured span for which we did not see any span with a priority > 0 (sampled by Priority). The resulting sampled traces will likely be incomplete and will be flagged with a exceptioKey metric set at 1.

func NewRareSampler

func NewRareSampler(conf *config.AgentConfig) *RareSampler

NewRareSampler returns a NewRareSampler that ensures that we sample combinations of env, service, name, resource, http-status, error type for each top level or measured spans

func (*RareSampler) Sample

func (e *RareSampler) Sample(now time.Time, t *pb.TraceChunk, env string) bool

Sample a trace and returns true if trace was sampled (should be kept)

func (*RareSampler) Stop

func (e *RareSampler) Stop()

Stop stops reporting stats

type RateByService

type RateByService struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

RateByService stores the sampling rate per service. It is thread-safe, so one can read/write on it concurrently, using getters and setters.

func (*RateByService) GetNewState

func (rbs *RateByService) GetNewState(version string) State

GetNewState returns the current state if the given version is different from the local version.

func (*RateByService) SetAll

func (rbs *RateByService) SetAll(rates map[ServiceSignature]rm)

SetAll the sampling rate for all services. If a service/env is not in the map, then the entry is removed.

type RemoteRates

type RemoteRates struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

RemoteRates computes rates per (env, service) to apply in trace-agent clients. The rates are adjusted to match a targetTPS per (env, service) received from remote configurations. RemoteRates listens for new remote configurations with a grpc subscriber. On reception, new tps targets replace the previous ones.

func (*RemoteRates) Start

func (r *RemoteRates) Start()

Start runs and adjust rates per signature following remote TPS targets

func (*RemoteRates) Stop

func (r *RemoteRates) Stop()

Stop stops RemoteRates main loop

type Sampler

type Sampler struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Sampler is the main component of the sampling logic Seen traces are counted per signature in a circular buffer of numBuckets. The sampler distributes uniformly on all signature a targetTPS. The bucket with the maximum counts over the period of the buffer is used to compute the sampling rates.

func (*Sampler) Start

func (s *Sampler) Start()

Start runs and the Sampler main loop

func (*Sampler) Stop

func (s *Sampler) Stop()

Stop stops the main Run loop

type SamplingPriority

type SamplingPriority int8

SamplingPriority is the type encoding a priority sampling decision.

const (
	// PriorityNone is the value for SamplingPriority when no priority sampling decision could be found.
	PriorityNone SamplingPriority = math.MinInt8

	// PriorityUserDrop is the value set by a user to explicitly drop a trace.
	PriorityUserDrop SamplingPriority = -1

)

func GetSamplingPriority

func GetSamplingPriority(t *pb.TraceChunk) (SamplingPriority, bool)

GetSamplingPriority returns the value of the sampling priority metric set on this span and a boolean indicating if such a metric was actually found or not.

type ScoreSampler

type ScoreSampler struct {
	*Sampler
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

ScoreSampler samples pieces of traces by computing a signature based on spans (service, name, rsc, http.status, error.type) scoring it and applying a rate. The rates are applied on the TraceID to maximize the number of chunks with errors caught for the same traceID. For a set traceID: P(chunk1 kept and chunk2 kept) = min(P(chunk1 kept), P(chunk2 kept))

ServiceSignature represents a unique way to identify a service.

func (ServiceSignature) Hash

func (s ServiceSignature) Hash() Signature

Hash generates the signature of a trace with minimal information such as service and env, this is typically used by distributed sampling based on priority, and used as a key to store the desired rate for a given service,env tuple.

type Signature

type Signature uint64

Signature is a hash representation of trace or a service, used to identify simlar signatures.
