What This Dashboard Monitors

This dashboard tracks essential ingestion metrics to help you:

• Monitor Data Volume: Track the total volume of metrics, traces, and logs being ingested
• Cost Optimization: Identify high-volume data sources that may impact costs
• Capacity Planning: Understand ingestion patterns for better resource allocation
• Volume Analysis: Break down ingestion by service, environment, and data type
• Ingestion Health: Monitor the health and patterns of your data ingestion pipeline

For controlling data volume, refer to these comprehensive guides:

• Metrics: How to drop metrics
• Logs: How to drop logs
• Traces: How to drop spans

Metrics Included

Logs Ingestion

• Total Logs: Total count of log records ingested (605K)
• Logs Count by Level: Distribution of log levels by severity_text (INFO, Information, etc.)
• Logs Count by Log File Path: Volume breakdown by log file sources showing file paths and counts
• Logs by Deployment Environment and Service: Breakdown showing deployment environment, service name, and log counts

Traces Ingestion

• Total Spans: Total count of spans ingested
• Spans Count by Environment and Service: Breakdown of span volume by environment and service
• Count by Span Name: Volume analysis per span name/operation
• List of Attributes: Comprehensive table showing all span attributes and resource attributes with their types (Span Attribute, Span Resource Attribute, Log Resource Attribute)

Metrics Ingestion

• Total Samples: Total count of metric samples ingested (1.63 Mil)
• Volume Breakdown by Environment: Table showing deployment environment and sample counts
• Volume Breakdown by Metric Name: Table showing normalized metric names and their sample counts (top 100 metrics by volume)
• Volume by Service: Table showing metric names, service names, and counts
• Volume Breakdown by Deployment Environment and Metric Name: Combined breakdown showing environment, metric name, and sample counts
• The Observed Report Interval for (Metric, Service) Combination: Table showing deployment environment, metric name, service name, and reporting intervals in seconds
• Is My Cluster/Node/Namespace Sending Metric?: Table checking if Kubernetes components are sending metrics with cluster, node, and namespace details
• Is My Host Sending Metric?: Table showing host-level metrics to verify metric collection from specific hosts

Important Notes

• Time Window: Dashboard shows only the last 15 minutes of data for focused analysis
• Volume Limits: Tables show top 100 entries by volume to focus on highest impact sources
• Real-time Focus: Designed for understanding current ingestion patterns rather than historical analysis
