Istio module

edit

This functionality is in beta and is subject to change. The design and code is less mature than official GA features and is being provided as-is with no warranties. Beta features are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.

This is the Istio module. The Istio module collects metrics from the Istio prometheus exporters endpoints.

The default metricsets are mesh, mixer, pilot, galley, citadel.

Compatibility

edit

The Istio module is tested with Istio 1.4.

Example configuration

edit

The Istio module supports the standard configuration options that are described in Modules. Here is an example configuration:

metricbeat.modules:
# Istio mesh. To collect all Mixer-generated metrics
- module: istio
  metricsets: ["mesh"]
  period: 10s
  # use istio-telemetry.istio-system:42422, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset
  hosts: ["localhost:42422"]

# Istio mixer. To monitor Mixer itself.
- module: istio
  metricsets: ["mixer"]
  period: 10s
  # use istio-telemetry.istio-system:15014, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset
  hosts: ["localhost:15014"]

# Istio galley. To collect all Galley-generated metrics
- module: istio
  metricsets: ["galley"]
  period: 10s
  # use istio-galley.istio-system:15014, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset
  hosts: ["localhost:15014"]

# Istio pilot. To collect all Pilot-generated metrics.
- module: istio
  metricsets: ["pilot"]
  period: 10s
  # use istio-pilot.istio-system:15014, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset
  hosts: ["localhost:15014"]

# Istio citadel. To collect all Citadel-generated metrics.
- module: istio
  metricsets: ["citadel"]
  period: 10s
  # use istio-pilot.istio-system:15014, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset
  hosts: ["localhost:15014"]
