Remove PG from token #39

Closed ryandotsmith closed 11 years ago

ryandotsmith commented 11 years ago

L2met supports multiple librato credentials. Using a unique token in the drain url, l2met can map drains to unique librato accounts. Currently we look up the librato credentials before posting to librato via PG queries. While this works, PG is overkill.

An alternative solution could involve and encrypted JSON file that is accessible via HTTPs. We could use fernet to handle encryption and S3 to host the file.

This would mean we can eliminate PG from l2met.

A better solution has been found and is currently being tracked in #48
