public sealed class MetricStructuredName : IMessage<MetricStructuredName>, IEquatable<MetricStructuredName>, IDeepCloneable<MetricStructuredName>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Identifies a metric, by describing the source which generated the
metric.
Zero or more labeled fields which identify the part of the job this
metric is associated with, such as the name of a step or collection.
For example, built-in counters associated with steps will have
context['step'] = <step-name>. Counters associated with PCollections
in the SDK will have context['pcollection'] = <pcollection-name>.
