Wavefront by VMware Adapter for Istio

Wavefront by VMware Adapter for Istio is an adapter for Istio to publish metrics to Wavefront by VMware.

Note: This adapter is currently experimental. Therefore, caution should be taken before using it in production environments.

Quick Start

Configuration

1. Create a copy of the config/operatorconfig/ directory.

2. If you want the metrics to be published to the Wavefront instance directly, supply the direct params for wavefront-handler under sample_operator_config.yaml like so:

params:
  direct:
    server: https://YOUR-INSTANCE.wavefront.com
    token: YOUR-API-TOKEN

Instructions for generating an API token can be found in the Wavefront by VMware docs.

If you want the metrics to be published to the Wavefront Proxy instead, supply the proxy params like below:

params:
  proxy:
    address: YOUR-PROXY-IP:YOUR-PROXY-PORT

See the reference docs for the available configuration parameters.

Deployment

Please follow these steps to configure the Istio Mixer to publish metrics to Wavefront using this adapter. These steps must be performed after deploying Istio.

1. Deploy the wavefront-adapter.yaml.

kubectl apply -f config/wavefront-adapter.yaml

2. Deploy your copy of operatorconfig.

kubectl apply -f YOUR/operatorconfig/

You should now be able to see Istio metrics on Wavefront with istio as source.
