Metric Scopes
The Metrics specification defines three Scopes, Base, Vendor and Application which correspond to the following purposes:
- Base
-
Base metrics are mandatory for all implementations to provide. This is so that there is a predictable baseline of metrics which will be available on any MicroProfile implementation.
These metrics can be accessed under
/metrics/base. - Vendor
-
Vendor metrics are specific to each implementation and are intended to offer metrics which are unique to each vendor.
These metrics can be accessed under
/metrics/vendor. - Application
-
Application metrics are reserved for those metrics which are to be exposed from the application by using the developer API.
These metrics can be accessed under
/metrics/application.
