Update metrics API endpoint for FedRAMP - POMI #232

Closed orion-fra closed 4 years ago

orion-fra commented 4 years ago

Currently dimensional metrics are going through CloudFlare and are routed to a Cell. Both of these mechanisms are not FedRAMP approved. For FedRAMP customers there is a special gov-infra-api.newrelic.com domain that doesn't use CloudFlare or cells.

In order to move Infra to dimensional metrics in a FedRAMP approved way, we need to make sure the dimensional metrics capability is following the same approach: going straight to CHI and avoid CloudFlare and cells.

Instead of using the current domain: metric-api.newrelic.com, we will be using infra-api.newrelic.com. For POMI we need to update the default url.

The SDK does not have a concept of endpoints so does not understand what FedRAMP is. This is used to communicate with the agent and so the changes are most likely needed there (if there are any to be made).
