Ent Historical Metrics

This feature is still under development

Sidekiq Enterprise has the ability to send queue processing metrics to Statsd for dashboards and historical reporting.

Configuration

In your initializer, add this:

# gem install statsd-ruby
statsd = Statsd.new('127.0.0.1', 8125)
statsd.namespace = 'myapp'

Sidekiq.configure_server do |config|
  # statsd must be something which quacks like a statsd-ruby instance
  # history is captured every 30 seconds by default
  config.save_history(statsd, 30)
end

Metrics

Sidekiq Enterprise sends the following metrics:

• sidekiq.enqueued - Total Size of all known queues
• sidekiq.retries - Total Retries Size
• sidekiq.scheduled - Total Scheduled Size
• sidekiq.busy - Total Busy Size
• sidekiq.enqueued.#{queue} - Current Size of queue

The statsd namespace will be prepended to each metric, e.g. "myapp.sidekiq.enqueued".
