This project is an API server for Observatorium. The API provides an authenticated and authorized, multi-tenant interface for writing and reading observability signals, i.e. metrics and logs.
For a quick start, run:
make test-interactiveThis command spins up a full setup for Observatorium API with all dependent services. It is intended for short-lived manual testing on your local environment.
It is also possible to run the test with flags '-v' (to see the output) and '-test.timeout=9999m' to ensure the test is not terminated.
Since this starts all necessary services in a Docker environment, make sure you have Docker installed.
The Observatorium API server fulfills requests by proxying reads and writes to a backend for each type of observability signal.
The Observatorium API server can serve read and write requests for Prometheus metrics. In order to handle requests for metrics, a compatible backend must be configured.
The backend from which to read metrics can be specified with the --metrics.read.endpoint flag.
Compatible backends must implement the Prometheus HTTP API, e.g. Prometheus, Thanos querier, Cortex, etc.
The backend to which to write metrics can be specified with the --metrics.write.endpoint flag.
Compatible backends must implement the Prometheus remote-write API, e.g. Thanos receiver, Cortex, etc.
The rules backend to where rules can be stored can be specified with the --metrics.rules.endpoint flag.
The Observatorium API server can serve read and write requests for logs. In order to handle requests for logs, a compatible backend must be configured.
The backend from which to read logs can be specified with the --logs.read.endpoint flag.
Compatible backends must implement the Loki read API, e.g. Loki.
The backend from which to tail logs can be specified with the --logs.tail.endpoint flag.
Compatible backends must implement the Loki tail API, e.g. Loki.
The backend to which to write logs can be specified with the --logs.write.endpoint flag.
Compatible backends must implement the Loki write API, e.g. Loki.
