Istio moduleedit
This functionality is in beta and is subject to change. The design and code is less mature than official GA features and is being provided as-is with no warranties. Beta features are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.
This is the Istio module.
This module is compatible with versions before 1.5 of Istio where microservices architecture is used. If using
versions prior to 1.5 then mesh, mixer, pilot, galley, citadel metricsets should be used where the Istio
module collects metrics from the
Istio prometheus exporters endpoints.
For versions after 1.5, istiod and proxy metricsets can be used.
istiod collects metrics directly from Istio Daemon while proxy collects from each of the proxy sidecars.
The default metricsets are mesh, mixer, pilot, galley, citadel.
Compatibilityedit
The Istio module is tested with Istio 1.4 for mesh, mixer, pilot, galley, citadel.
The Istio module is tested with Istio 1.7 for istiod and proxy.
Dashboardedit
The Istio module includes predefined dashboards:
- overview information about Istio Daemon.
- Traffic information collected from istio-proxies.
These dashboards are only compatible with versions of Istio after 1.5 which should be monitored with istiod
and proxy metricsets.
Example configurationedit
The Istio module supports the standard configuration options that are described in Modules. Here is an example configuration:
metricbeat.modules: # Istio mesh. To collect all Mixer-generated metrics - module: istio metricsets: ["mesh"] period: 10s # use istio-telemetry.istio-system:42422, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset hosts: ["localhost:42422"] # Istio mixer. To monitor Mixer itself. - module: istio metricsets: ["mixer"] period: 10s # use istio-telemetry.istio-system:15014, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset hosts: ["localhost:15014"] # Istio galley. To collect all Galley-generated metrics - module: istio metricsets: ["galley"] period: 10s # use istio-galley.istio-system:15014, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset hosts: ["localhost:15014"] # Istio pilot. To collect all Pilot-generated metrics. - module: istio metricsets: ["pilot"] period: 10s # use istio-pilot.istio-system:15014, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset hosts: ["localhost:15014"] # Istio citadel. To collect all Citadel-generated metrics. - module: istio metricsets: ["citadel"] period: 10s # use istio-pilot.istio-system:15014, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset hosts: ["localhost:15014"] # Istio istiod to monitor the Istio Daemon for versions after 1.5 of Istio. - module: istio metricsets: ['istiod'] period: 10s # use istiod.istio-system:15014, when deploying Metricbeat in a kubernetes cluster as Pod or Daemonset hosts: ['localhost:15014'] # Istio proxy to monitor Envoy sidecars for versions after 1.5 of Istio. - module: istio metricsets: ['proxy'] period: 10s # it's recommended to deploy this metricset with autodiscovery, see metricset's docs for more info hosts: ['localhost:15090']
This module supports TLS connections when using ssl config field, as described in SSL.
It also supports the options described in Standard HTTP config options.
