Metrics API

Metrics API is a http API that is used to fetch metrics in the prometheus format. It is listening on port 8082 and only accessible from localhost by default. To change the default setting, see TorchServe Configuration. The metrics endpoint is enabled by default and returns Prometheus formatted metrics when metrics_mode configuration is set to prometheus. You can query metrics using curl requests or point a Prometheus Server to the endpoint and use Grafana for dashboards.

By default these APIs are enabled however it can be disabled by setting enable_metrics_api=false in torchserve config.properties file. For details refer Torchserve config docs.

Note This is not to be confused with torch serve's custom metrics API. The custom metrics API is used to collect custom backend metrics based on the configured metrics_mode (log or prometheus). More information on this api can be found here.

Prometheus server

To view these metrics on a Prometheus server, download and install using the instructions here. Create a minimal prometheus.yml config file as below and run ./prometheus --config.file=prometheus.yml.

global:
  scrape_interval:     15s
  evaluation_interval: 15s

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: 'prometheus'
    static_configs:
    - targets: ['localhost:9090']
  - job_name: 'torchserve'
    static_configs:
    - targets: ['localhost:8082'] #TorchServe metrics endpoint

Navigate to http://localhost:9090/ on a browser to execute queries and create graphs

Grafana

Once you have the Torchserve and Prometheus servers running, you can further setup Grafana, point it to Prometheus server and navigate to http://localhost:3000/ to create dashboards and graphs.

You can use command given below to start Grafana - sudo systemctl daemon-reload && sudo systemctl enable grafana-server && sudo systemctl start grafana-server
