Hi,
With our metric definitions, I'd like to see stronger definition of what sort of data
we're storing and how it could be processed in the future. And with this I mean the
same sort of stuff we had in the RHQ, such as "cumulative / gauge / trendsup /
etc", so that we could give better post processing capabilities when fetching the
data such as transforming the data between deltas and cumulative (depending on the user
needs).
While this could definitely be done with the tags, using such as "units",
"type", we don't have any defined names for these options that we could
depend on later. I guess this goes to the other tags discussion also, but I assume our
tags are designed to work for searching capabilities as well as for definitions?
