Docker container metrics

These are the key metrics displayed for Docker containers.

Note Stack Planned

The Infrastructure UI only supports Docker container metric data from the Docker integration.

Metric	Description
CPU Usage (%)	Average CPU for the container. Field Calculation: `average(docker.cpu.total.pct)`

Metric	Description
Memory Usage (%)	Average memory usage for the container. Field Calculation: `average(docker.memory.usage.pct)`

Metric	Description
Inbound Traffic (RX)	Derivative of the maximum of `docker.network.in.bytes` scaled to a 1 second rate. Field Calculation: `average(docker.network.inbound.bytes) * 8 / (max(metricset.period, kql='docker.network.inbound.bytes: *') / 1000)`
Outbound Traffic (TX)	Derivative of the maximum of `docker.network.out.bytes` scaled to a 1 second rate. Field Calculation: `average(docker.network.outbound.bytes) * 8 / (max(metricset.period, kql='docker.network.outbound.bytes: *') / 1000)`

Metric	Description
Disk Read IOPS	Average count of read operations from the device per second. Field Calculation: `counter_rate(max(docker.diskio.read.ops), kql='docker.diskio.read.ops: *')`
Disk Write IOPS	Average count of write operations from the device per second. Field Calculation: `counter_rate(max(docker.diskio.write.ops), kql='docker.diskio.write.ops: *')`

These are the key metrics displayed for Kubernetes (containerd) containers.

Note Stack Planned

The Infrastructure UI supports Kubernetes container metric data from the Kubernetes integration.

Metric	Description
CPU Usage (%)	Average CPU for the container. Field Calculation: `average(kubernetes.container.cpu.usage.limit.pct)`

Metric	Description
Memory Usage (%)	Average memory usage for the container. Field Calculation: `average(kubernetes.container.memory.usage.limit.pct)`

Stack Planned

The Infrastructure UI requires the following attributes to work correctly. Data that does not include them will not appear in these views:

Inventory UI searches - Docker Containers: event.module: 'docker' OR event.module: 'kubernetes' OR event.module: 'system'
Inventory Rule - Docker Containers: event.module: 'docker' OR event.module: 'kubernetes' OR event.module: 'system'
