|
Welcome to the Ceilometer developer documentation!
|
|
==================================================
|
|
|
|
The :term:`Ceilometer` project aims to deliver a unique point of
|
|
contact for billing systems to acquire all of the measurements they
|
|
need to establish customer billing, across all current OpenStack core
|
|
components with work underway to support future OpenStack components.
|
|
|
|
What is the purpose of the project and vision for it?
|
|
=====================================================
|
|
|
|
* Provide efficient collection of metering data, in terms of CPU and
|
|
network costs.
|
|
* Allow deployers to integrate with the metering system directly or by
|
|
replacing components.
|
|
* Data may be collected by monitoring notifications sent from existing
|
|
services or by polling the infrastructure.
|
|
* Allow deployers to configure the type of data collected to meet
|
|
their operating requirements.
|
|
* The data collected by the metering system is made visible to some
|
|
users through a REST API.
|
|
* The metering messages are signed and :term:`non-repudiable`.
|
|
|
|
This documentation offers information on how Ceilometer works and how to
|
|
contribute to the project.
