Reuse TRITONSERVER_MetricSet?

@rmccorm4 Any thought? Basically we need to merge two funcions below into one Metric::Set(double value). It works but may add confusion.

core/src/metric_family.cc

Lines 338 to 404 in fd5c44b

TRITONSERVER_Error*

Metric::Set(double value)

{

if (metric_ == nullptr) {

return TRITONSERVER_ErrorNew(

TRITONSERVER_ERROR_INTERNAL,

"Could not set metric value. Metric has been invalidated.");

}

switch (kind_) {

case TRITONSERVER_METRIC_KIND_COUNTER: {

return TRITONSERVER_ErrorNew(

TRITONSERVER_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED,

"TRITONSERVER_METRIC_KIND_COUNTER does not support Set");

}

case TRITONSERVER_METRIC_KIND_GAUGE: {

auto gauge_ptr = reinterpret_cast<prometheus::Gauge*>(metric_);

gauge_ptr->Set(value);

break;

}

case TRITONSERVER_METRIC_KIND_HISTOGRAM: {

return TRITONSERVER_ErrorNew(

TRITONSERVER_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED,

"TRITONSERVER_METRIC_KIND_HISTOGRAM does not support Set");

}

default:

return TRITONSERVER_ErrorNew(

TRITONSERVER_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED,

"Unsupported TRITONSERVER_MetricKind");

}

return nullptr; // Success

}

TRITONSERVER_Error*

Metric::Observe(double value)

}

I would need to take a closer look, but my gut reaction is that Guan is probably right and we can probably just reuse MetricValue and MetricSet which will call Collect and Observe internally when kind == KIND_HISTOGRAM if functionally equivalent

MetricValue may not work if Collect returns multiple values (one per bucket?), but again will need to take a closer look. Let me know if you already know more details on this from your research.

But similar to the new C API for MetricV2, keep in mind how this would work if we added support for Summary metric and wanted to get the values for each quantile, which is basically same as values for each bucket. Ideally the same API would work for both or all types.

MetricValue cannot be reused for histogram.

I would like to revisit this change. The consensus is to keep C API and python_backend API 1:1 matched. I am inclined to add a new C API TRITONSERVER_MetricObserve for histogram instead of reusing TRITONSERVER_MetricSet for three reasons.

Both Histogram and Summary types call Observe to record new value. We can reuse observe for Summary type if we add it in the future.

Histogram also has ObserveMultiple API which may be added in the future. I don't like the idea that Histogram.Set and Histogram.ObserveMultiple coexist.

Setting histogram to a value aka Histogram.set(val) is semantically wrong. It is confusing to users familiar with Prometheus APIs. The description of TRITONSERVER_MetricSet can be verbose as well in order to describe different behaviors for counter/gauge and histogram/summary.

FYI
https://github.com/jupp0r/prometheus-cpp/blob/master/core/include/prometheus/histogram.h
https://github.com/jupp0r/prometheus-cpp/blob/master/core/include/prometheus/summary.h

Well.. Triton metrics API is not supposed to be mirroring "Prometheus API", Prometheus is one of the "forms" we can exhibit the metrics as. So we should design the API to be using generic terms for statistics, the meaning of gauge/counter/histogram (and summary?) is not affected by the fact that Prometheus or other metrics libraries are used.

Thinking from this mindset, my question is if observe is the generic verb for recording the statistics of histogram. If that is the case, then I am fine to add XXXObserve, otherwise, we should use the proper verb

I think either sample or observe. Voting for Observe for simplicity.

A histogram samples observations (usually things like request durations or response sizes) and counts them in configurable buckets. It also provides a sum of all observed values.

Similar to a histogram, a summary samples observations (usually things like request durations and response sizes). While it also provides a total count of observations and a sum of all observed values, it calculates configurable quantiles over a sliding time window.

-/// Supports metrics of kind TRITONSERVER_METRIC_KIND_GAUGE and returns
+/// Set the current value of metric to value or observe the value to metric.
+/// Supports metrics of kind TRITONSERVER_METRIC_KIND_GAUGE and
+/// TRITONSERVER_METRIC_KIND_HISTOGRAM. Returns


Do we want to explain what it does when TRITONSERVER_METRIC_KIND_HISTOGRAM is histogram (i.e. increment the counter for the bucket that value matches)?

What does "observe" mean? Can we add more details?

That's why I still think we need a new C API TRITONSERVER_MetricObserve.

I updated the comment. https://github.com/triton-inference-server/core/pull/386/files#diff-ce70b44ec4760c05dc91fc32ae46c5c3d9fa27edb61b960bf299b5960b38fc9fR2770

+ std::memcpy(buckets_.data(), buckets, sizeof(double) * bucket_count);


Suggested change

buckets_.resize(bucket_count);

std::memcpy(buckets_.data(), buckets, sizeof(double) * bucket_count);

buckets_ = std::vector<double>(buckets, buckets + bucket_count);

+ std::vector<std::uint64_t> cumulative_counts = {1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3};
+ ASSERT_EQ(buckets.size() + 1, cumulative_counts.size());


The cumulative_counts is depending on the buckets you split for the histogram, you should initialize cumulative_counts according to the buckets and data
