Redioscope

Redioscope generates metrics based on the data in one or more redis databases.

It has two entry points, a web interface and a command line tool (redioscan). Its primary purpose is to expose a statistical summary in the OpenMetrics format so it can be scraped by Prometheus. A docker image is available at docker-registry.wikimedia.org/repos/mediawiki/services/redioscope (tags).

Redioscope is designed as a standalone application, but it contains several reusable packages. It can be imported as a Go module using go get gitlab.wikimedia.org/repos/mediawiki/services/redioscope .

Uses

Redioscope is currently used to surface metrics from the REST Gateway/Rate limiting . It connects to the redis servers independently of the REST Gateway service, and is not critical to its operations.
