Prometheus exporter, question about meaning of the write/read_latencies_ms_count metric

Operations Monitoring

Hello,

For these two metrics given by the prometheus exporter: aerospike_latencies_write_ms_count

aerospike_latencies_read_ms_count

What exactly do these track? I know there is the bucket equivalent, but I’m not sure how the above two relate, is this just the total number of requests (even though it mentions latencies and ms?)

Thanks

I’m not very familiar with Prometheus exporter but looking at the contents of the test data, I believe it is the number of requests that the histogram is tracking at the time the histogram was fetched. It should be the same as the “+Inf” bucket but maybe a nicer name when you just want to see how many of X requests have happened.
