Examining metrics of a service

After you have configured the application to export the metrics and the monitoring stack to scrape them, you can examine the metrics in the web console.

Prerequisites

  • You have logged in to the OpenShift Container Platform web console.

  • You have installed the OpenShift Serverless Operator and Knative Serving.

Procedure

  1. Optional: Run requests against your application that you will be able to see in the metrics:

    $ hello_route=$(oc get ksvc helloworld-go -n ns1 -o jsonpath='{.status.url}') && \
    curl $hello_route
    Example output
    Hello Go Sample v1!

  2. In the web console, navigate to the Observe → Metrics interface.

  3. In the input field, enter the query for the metric you want to observe, for example:

    revision_app_request_count{namespace="ns1", job="helloworld-go-sm"}

    Another example:

    myapp_processed_ops_total{namespace="ns1", job="helloworld-go-sm"}

  4. Observe the visualized metrics:

Queue proxy metrics

Each Knative service has a proxy container that proxies the connections to the application container. A number of metrics are reported for the queue proxy performance.

You can use the following metrics to measure if requests are queued at the proxy side and the actual delay in serving requests at the application side.

Metric name Description Type Tags Unit

revision_request_count

The number of requests that are routed to queue-proxy pod.

Counter

configuration_name, container_name, namespace_name, pod_name, response_code, response_code_class, revision_name, service_name

Integer (no units)

revision_request_latencies

The response time of revision requests.

Histogram

configuration_name, container_name, namespace_name, pod_name, response_code, response_code_class, revision_name, service_name

Milliseconds

revision_app_request_count

The number of requests that are routed to the user-container pod.

Counter

configuration_name, container_name, namespace_name, pod_name, response_code, response_code_class, revision_name, service_name

Integer (no units)

revision_app_request_latencies

The response time of revision app requests.

Histogram

configuration_name, namespace_name, pod_name, response_code, response_code_class, revision_name, service_name

Milliseconds

revision_queue_depth

The current number of items in the serving and waiting queues. This metric is not reported if unlimited concurrency is configured.

Gauge

configuration_name, event-display, container_name, namespace_name, pod_name, response_code_class, revision_name, service_name

Integer (no units)
