Join two metrics as label to some other metric [HELP/DIRECTIONS needed]

[openmohan]

Hi,
I would like to make a join operation between two metrics and expect the metric values to be in single response.

Consider this situation :
ifOutOctets - which gives number of packets transmitted
(Response is << _ifOutOctets{ifAlias="bond1v4@bond1",ifDescr="bond1v4",ifIndex="8",ifName="bond1v4",instance="169.53.135.170",job="Vyatta"} value : 75392868_ >>)

ifInOctets - which gives number of packets received
(Response is << ifInOctets{ifAlias="bond1v4@bond1",ifDescr="bond1v4",ifIndex="8",ifName="bond1v4",instance="169.53.135.170",job="Vyatta"} value: 8996220>>)

ifSpeed - gives speed of interface
(Response is << _ifSpeed{ifAlias="bond1v4@bond1",ifDescr="bond1v4",ifIndex="8",ifName="bond1v4",instance="169.53.135.170",job="Vyatta"} value : 100000000_ >>)

I would like to join all these metrics to be queried using a single query and expected response be like
(ifSpeed{ifAlias="bond1v4@bond1",ifDescr="bond1v4",ifIndex="8",ifName="bond1v4",instance="169.53.135.170",job="Vyatta",ifInOctets:"8996220",ifOutOctets="75392868"} value : 100000000)

I can add ifInOctets and ifOutOctets as lookups in ifSpeed but that would create new time series data for each and every change in ifInOctets and ifOutOctets .
Please let me know if there is any other way to join these queries . Thanks in advance.

This is not possible, values can't become labels. It sounds like whatever you're using to process this data needs to be able to handle multiple queries.

Thanks a lot @brian-brazil .
