Event to Metric Processor
Event to Metric Processor
Purpose: Converts log events into structured metric events (e.g., counters, gauges) for monitoring and analysis.
Key Features:
- Metric Types: Choose between incremental (counter) or absolute (gauge) metrics.
- Field References: Use field values as metric data points or tags.
Steps to Add:
- Edit the pipeline and click Add Processor.
- Select Event to Metric and configure:
- Title/Description for clarity.
- Metric name (e.g.,
error_count). - Metric type (sum, counter, gauge).
- Optional tag fields and values for metadata.
Note: If you need to retain the original log, duplicate it before routing to this processor.
