I see some references scattered around the docs for the /metrics endpoint in OSS, but no content about what it is, why it exists, and what you can do with it.
It would be nice to have a place to send people for monitoring their local influxdb instance that included information about the /metrics endpoint.
I'm thinking the following outline:
Title: Monitoring your InfluxDB Instance
- Enabling/Disabling Prometheus /metrics endpoint
- Securing the endpoint
- Summary of elements found in the endpoint
- Configuring Telegraf to scrape data from the endpoint and send it to cloud
- Configuring an OSS scraper to scrape it
- Configuring a Flux Task with promtheus.scrape to scrape it and store it locally
