Metrics Measure Interface

Measures support record(value, label_set), signifying that events report individual measurements. This kind of metric should be used when the count or rate of events is meaningful and either:

  • The sum is of interest in addition to the count (rate)
  • Quantile information is of interest.

Measures are defined as with_absolute(true) by default, meaning that negative values are invalid. absolute = true measures are typically used to record absolute values such as durations and sizes.

When passing MetricOptions, measures can be declared as with_abslute(false) to indicate support for positive and negative values.
