             Summary: Create Metrics Load Simulator
                 Key: AMBARI-7818
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-7818
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: ambari-metrics
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Siddharth Wagle
            Assignee: Siddharth Wagle
             Fix For: 2.0.0


We need a way of simulating a cluster pushing metrics into the metrics service. The goal is to create a standalone load generation application that:

* Can be run independently on multiple nodes
* Takes arguments that control number of threads that emit data (each thread functions as a separate node)
* Accepts configuration of where to send the data (REST endpoint)
* Generates random data within acceptable ranges for metrics coming from Hadoop metrics sink and Host Metrics Monitor (i.e. should use valid metric names so metrics can be surfaced within Ambari Dashboard.

This service will be used to validate the current POC work as well as system/acceptance testing.
