Docker container metrics

These are the key metrics displayed for Docker containers.

Note Stack Planned

For Docker container metrics, the Infrastructure UI and inventory rules only support metric data collected by the Docker integration.

Stack Planned


Filter	`event.module : "docker"`	Used to filter relevant data.
Identifier	`container.id`	Used to identify each entity.
Display value	`container.name`	Used as a display friendly value.

Metric	Description
CPU Usage (%)	Average CPU for the container. Field Calculation: `average(docker.cpu.total.pct)`

Metric	Description
Memory Usage (%)	Average memory usage for the container. Field Calculation: `average(docker.memory.usage.pct)`

Metric	Description
Inbound Traffic (RX)	Derivative of the maximum of `docker.network.in.bytes` scaled to a 1 second rate. Field Calculation: `average(docker.network.inbound.bytes) * 8 / (max(metricset.period, kql='docker.network.inbound.bytes: *') / 1000)`
Outbound Traffic (TX)	Derivative of the maximum of `docker.network.out.bytes` scaled to a 1 second rate. Field Calculation: `average(docker.network.outbound.bytes) * 8 / (max(metricset.period, kql='docker.network.outbound.bytes: *') / 1000)`

Metric	Description
Disk Read IOPS	Average count of read operations from the device per second. Field Calculation: `counter_rate(max(docker.diskio.read.ops), kql='docker.diskio.read.ops: *')`
Disk Write IOPS	Average count of write operations from the device per second. Field Calculation: `counter_rate(max(docker.diskio.write.ops), kql='docker.diskio.write.ops: *')`

These are the key metrics displayed for Kubernetes (containerd) containers.

Note Stack Planned

For Kubernetes container metrics, the Infrastructure UI and inventory rules only support metric data collected by the Kubernetes integration.

Stack Planned


Filter	`event.module : "kubernetes"`	Used to filter relevant data.
Identifier	`container.id`	Used to identify each entity.
Display value	`container.name`	Used as a display friendly value.

Metric	Description
CPU Usage (%)	Average CPU for the container. Field Calculation: `average(kubernetes.container.cpu.usage.limit.pct)`

Metric	Description
Memory Usage (%)	Average memory usage for the container. Field Calculation: `average(kubernetes.container.memory.usage.limit.pct)`
