There has been some good discussion around availability lately. I want to add one more to
the mix, but hopefully this one is not as in-depth as some of the other topics. Right in
metrics we have endpoints like,
POST /metrics/numeric/data
GET /metrics/numeric/{id}/data
POST /metrics/availability/data
GET /metrics/availability/{id}/data
I would like to change these to,
POST /metrics/data
GET /metrics/{id}/data
POST /availability/data
GET /availability/{id}/data
I think the “metrics” prefix is awkward and unnecessary. I think that it is intuitive
enough that metrics on its own refers to numeric data. Thoughts?
