go-carbon

Golang implementation of Graphite/Carbon server with classic architecture: Agent -> Cache -> Persister

Features

• Receive metrics from TCP and UDP (plaintext protocol)
• Receive metrics with Pickle protocol (TCP only)
• Receive metrics from HTTP
• Receive metrics from Apache Kafka
• storage-schemas.conf
• storage-aggregation.conf
• Carbonlink (requests to cache from graphite-web)
• Carbonlink-like GRPC api
• Logging with rotation support (reopen log if it moves)
• Many persister workers (using many cpu cores)
• Run as daemon
• Optional dump/restore restart on USR2 signal (config dump section): stop persister, start write new data to file, dump cache to file, stop all (and restore from files after next start)
• Reload some config options without restart (HUP signal):
  • whisper section of main config, storage-schemas.conf and storage-aggregation.conf
  • graph-prefix, metric-interval, metric-endpoint, max-cpu from common section
  • dump section

Performance

Faster than default carbon. In all conditions :) How much faster depends on server hardware, storage-schemas, etc.

The result of replacing "carbon" to "go-carbon" on a server with a load up to 900 thousand metric per minute:

There were some efforts to find out maximum possible performance of go-carbon on a hardware (2xE5-2620v3, 128GB RAM, local SSDs).

The result of that effort (in points per second):

Stable performance was around 950k points per second with short-term peak performance of 1.2M points/sec.

Efficient metric namespace patterns for trie index

Putting the most common namespaces at the beginning of the metric name could be beneficial for scaling. This doesn't affect the performance of trigram index. But when you decide to switch to trie index for serving higher number metrics in a single go-carbon instance, your query would be more efficient. At the same time, this naming pattern could lead to better metric namespace hierarchy.

For example: querying sys.cpu.loadavg.app.host-0001 would be faster than querying sys.app.host-0001.cpu.loadavg using trie index. Especially when you have tens of thousands hosts (host-0001, ..., host-9999), they all share the same prefix of sys.cpu.loadavg.app.host- in trie index, and they are compared only once during query. So this patterns leads to better memory usage and query performance when using trie+nfa/dfa index.

More details could be found in this blog: To glob 10M metrics: Trie * DFA = Tree² for Go-Carbon.

OS tuning

It is crucial for performance to ensure that your OS tuned so that go-carbon is never blocked on writes, usually that involves adjusting following sysctl params on Linux systems:

# percentage of your RAM which can be left unwritten to disk. MUST be much more than
# your write rate, which is usually one FS block size (4KB) per metric.
sysctl -w vm.dirty_ratio=80

# percentage of yout RAM when background writer have to kick in and
# start writes to disk. Make it way above the value you see in `/proc/meminfo|grep Dirty`
# so that it doesn't interefere with dirty_expire_centisecs explained below
sysctl -w vm.dirty_background_ratio=50

# allow page to be left dirty no longer than 10 mins
# if unwritten page stays longer than time set here,
# kernel starts writing it out
sysctl -w vm.dirty_expire_centisecs=$(( 10*60*100 ))

Net effect of these 3 params is that with dirty_*_ratio params set high enough multiple updates to a metric don't trigger disk activity. Multiple datapoint writes are coalesced into single disk write which kernel then writes to disk in a background.

With settings above applied, best write-strategy to use is "noop"

Online config/schema migration

What is online config/schema migration?

it's a process in go-carbon to make sure that metrics are using the right configurations, if not, it would migrate it to using the right configs.

In general, metrics are always produced with the right configuration specified in storage-aggregation.conf and storage-schemas.conf files. However, occasionally, we might realized that the aggregation method is incorrect for the newly produced metrics, or the original retention policy is too long or too short. And if we changed configs now, it would only apply on the new metrics. In order to make sure that the old metrics are using the right config, we have a few solutions:

• whisper-resizepy, whisper-set-aggregation-methodpy, etc.
• Deleting the old metrics and lose the history data.

Manual approach works fine if the data set is not very large. However, automation is always better.

The online config/schema migration feature in go-carbon is created to addresses this issue.

Although it's a nice feature, there are some caveats and limitations. Go-Carbon tries keep as much history intact as possible. However, depends on the policy changes, it might not always be possible to do so. Please be careful with the migration.

Notable caveats:

• When applying schema/retention changes, history is only copied if the resolution is the same (See some examples bellow).
• When applying aggregation method changes, histories are not changed.
• It's important to access the file size changes before applying new configs.

Expected changes:

Some illustrations of schema changes:

Useful Tools/Commands

tool/persister_configs_differ: persister_configs_differ is a tool that we can use to reason the impact of the config changes using file list cache and the new and old config files.
