Profiling OpenWhisk operation

[Erez Hadad <ER...@il.ibm.com>]

Hi folks,

I've found several indications in the OpenWhisk code, showing that it uses 
Kamon (kamon.io) for reporting internal metrics and profiling.
Can someone please explain (or direct to an explanation) how to set up 
OpenWhisk profiling with Kamon and Prometheus?

Regards,

If you just want Graphana dashboards you can use the instructions in the
docs that point to an image with StastD here
https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk/blob/master/docs/metrics.md

If you want to get the metrics from StatsD to Prometheus I found this looks
like it can be use, it even says you can skip StatsD server and just point
directly the the exporter https://github.com/prometheus/statsd_exporter

If you have success would be awesome for you to add a reference to the
metrics doc.
