TSDR collects the statistics data from the OVS as a time series data in a persistent data store. With the introduction of the Honeycomb application, the data statistics involved in the Vector Packet Processing (VPP) are not collected by the ODL applications. This proposal aims to collect the data statistics from the VPP instances using the Honeycomb ODL app and store the same as the time series data using the TSDR app. The VPP provides various data stats during its high performance packet processing. These stats are collected by the Honeycomb ODL application via the Honeycomb agents that run along with the VPP instances.
This proposal will enable the TSDR to be compatible with the Honeycomb data stats and will also enable available existing ODL northbound applications to capture the performance, health and the operational configurations of the Honeycomb virtual bridge domains(VBD).
