/**
 * A named and optionally tagged set of records to be sent to the metrics
 * system. 

* * A record name identifies the kind of data to be reported. For example, a * program reporting statistics relating to the disks on a computer might use * a record name "diskStats".

* * A record has zero or more tags. A tag has a name and a value. To * continue the example, the "diskStats" record might use a tag named * "diskName" to identify a particular disk. Sometimes it is useful to have * more than one tag, so there might also be a "diskType" with value "ide" or * "scsi" or whatever.

* * A record also has zero or more metrics. These are the named * values that are to be reported to the metrics system. In the "diskStats" * example, possible metric names would be "diskPercentFull", "diskPercentBusy", * "kbReadPerSecond", etc.

* * The general procedure for using a MetricsRecord is to fill in its tag and * metric values, and then call update() to pass the record to the * client library. * Metric data is not immediately sent to the metrics system * each time that update() is called. * An internal table is maintained, identified by the record name. This * table has columns * corresponding to the tag and the metric names, and rows * corresponding to each unique set of tag values. An update * either modifies an existing row in the table, or adds a new row with a set of * tag values that are different from all the other rows. Note that if there * are no tags, then there can be at most one row in the table.

* * Once a row is added to the table, its data will be sent to the metrics system * on every timer period, whether or not it has been updated since the previous * timer period. If this is inappropriate, for example if metrics were being * reported by some transient object in an application, the remove() * method can be used to remove the row and thus stop the data from being * sent.

* * Note that the update() method is atomic. This means that it is * safe for different threads to be updating the same metric. More precisely, * it is OK for different threads to call update() on MetricsRecord instances * with the same set of tag names and tag values. Different threads should * not use the same MetricsRecord instance at the same time. */ @InterfaceAudience.Private @InterfaceStability.Evolving public interface MetricsRecord { /** * Returns the record name. * * @return the record name */ public abstract String getRecordName(); /** * Sets the named tag to the specified value.
