TopK Processor Plugin

The TopK processor plugin is a filter designed to get the top series over a period of time. It can be tweaked to calculate the top metrics via different aggregation functions.

This processor goes through these steps when processing a batch of metrics:

  1. Groups measurements in buckets based on their tags and name
  2. Every N seconds, for each bucket, for each selected field: aggregate all the measurements using a given aggregation function (min, sum, mean, etc) and the field.
  3. For each computed aggregation: order the buckets by the aggregation, then returns all measurements in the top K buckets

Notes:

  • The deduplicates metrics
  • The name of the measurement is always used when grouping it
  • Depending on the amount of metrics on each bucket, more than K series may be returned
  • If a measurement does not have one of the selected fields, it is dropped from the aggregation
Configuration:
[[processors.topk]]
  ## How many seconds between aggregations
  # period = 10

  ## How many top buckets to return
  # k = 10

  ## Based on which tags should the buckets be computed. Globs can be specified.
  ## If set to an empty list tags are not considered when creating the buckets
  # group_by = ['*']

  ## Over which fields is the aggregation done
  # fields = ["value"]

  ## What aggregation function to use. Options: sum, mean, min, max
  # aggregation = "mean"

  ## Instead of the top k buckets, return the bottom k buckets
  # bottomk = false

  ## This setting provides a way to know wich metrics where group together.
  ## Add a tag (which name will be the value of this setting) to each metric.
  ## The value will be the tags used to pick its bucket.
  # add_groupby_tag = ""

  ## This setting provides a way to know the position of each metric's bucket in the top k
  ## If the list is non empty, a field will be added to each and every metric
  ## for each string present in this setting. This field will contain the ranking
  ## of the bucket that the metric belonged to when aggregated over that field.
  ## The name of the field will be set to the name of the aggregation field,
  ## suffixed with the string '_topk_rank'
  # add_rank_fields = []

  ## These settings provide a way to know what values the plugin is generating
  ## when aggregating metrics. If the list is non empty, then a field will be
  ## added to each every metric for each field present in this setting.
  ## This field will contain the computed aggregation for the bucket that the
  ## metric belonged to when aggregated over that field.
  ## The name of the field will be set to the name of the aggregation field,
  ## suffixed with the string '_topk_aggregate'
  # add_aggregate_fields = []
Tags:

This processor does not add tags by default. But the setting add_groupby_tag will add a tag if set to anything other than ""

Fields:

This processor does not add fields by default. But the settings add_rank_fields and add_aggregation_fields will add one or several fields if set to anything other than ""

Example

Config

[[processors.topk]]
  period = 20
  k = 3
  group_by = ["pid"]
  fields = ["cpu_usage"]
