Chapter 14. Using Metering on AMQ Streams
You can use the Metering tool that is available on OpenShift to generate metering reports from different data sources. As a cluster administrator, you can use metering to analyze what is happening in your cluster. You can either write your own, or use predefined SQL queries to define how you want to process data from the different data sources you have available. Using Prometheus as a default data source, you can generate reports on pods, namespaces, and most other OpenShift resources.
You can also use the OpenShift Metering operator to analyze your installed AMQ Streams components to determine whether you are in compliance with your Red Hat subscription.
To use metering with AMQ Streams, you must first install and configure the Metering operator on OpenShift Container Platform.
14.1. Metering resources
Metering has many resources which can be used to manage the deployment and installation of metering, as well as the reporting functionality metering provides. Metering is managed using the following CRDs:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
|
| Configures the metering stack for deployment. Contains customizations and configuration options to control each component that makes up the metering stack. |
|
| Controls what query to use, when, and how often the query should be run, and where to store the results. |
|
|
Contains the SQL queries used to perform analysis on the data contained within |
|
| Controls the data available to ReportQueries and Reports. Allows configuring access to different databases for use within metering. |
