The Grafana plugin works with all active flavors of Metrics: standalone,
Openshift-Metrics and Hawkular-Services.

I'm not sure what Stefan meant.

The Grafana plugins works with Metrics deployed on all distributions however, the plugin itself can only be used with the Metrics project, there are no projects (such as Alerts, or Inventory) that will ever integrate with it. That is why I think it should be under the Metrics project and not in another place. The integration itself is very specific to just Metrics, not the entire Hawkular Services.


But then it applies to Hawkular services (the most important Hawkular project) and then should really shine there as much as for Metrics.

We really need to think of Hawkular Metrics as a core part of Hawkular Services, not as a side project. 

Same for the documentation, the documentation to use metrics will need to be part of Hawkular Services documentation, not just a mere pointer to Hawkular metrics and let the user deal with the differences.


I am really not sure why the discussion took this turn, my comments were not about Services vs Metrics. To refocus on the Grafana plugin, the plugin is really specific to graphing actual metrics using the Metrics API only.


Let's not assume that people will take Hawkular Services and then combine themselves what is available to the metrics users with Hawkular Services.

Hawkular Metrics really shines when used with Alerts and Inventory, let's have that package easy to use and consume. And if it makes sense to add alerts or inventory in the Grafana plugin, we should. Also if we have it along the other clients, it's more consistent.
