openstack swift performance metrics collection API

Question

I have an openstack setup with ceilometer (polslter and notifier) installed. I am getting the required metrics like Storaeg_objects_incoming_bytes, storage_objects_size of swift in the metering tab. how ceilometer is getting these metrics.. what are the underlying components of swift which ceilometer api is communicating.. i am writing a python code so that the code would be able to communicate the swift drivers and print the metric...

Answer 1

If you are looking for Swift performance matrix please use SSbench

Ceilometer is project for utilization matrix & hence one has to look for the API requests & options it provides.

My suggestion would be to try mailing list & connect with the Ceilometer developers.
