public sealed class DroppedLabels : IMessage<DroppedLabels>, IEquatable<DroppedLabels>, IDeepCloneable<DroppedLabels>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Reference documentation and code samples for the Google Cloud Monitoring v3 API class DroppedLabels.
A set of (label, value) pairs that were removed from a Distribution
time series during aggregation and then added as an attachment to a
Distribution.Exemplar.
The full label set for the exemplars is constructed by using the dropped
pairs in combination with the label values that remain on the aggregated
Distribution time series. The constructed full label set can be used to
identify the specific entity, such as the instance or job, which might be
contributing to a long-tail. However, with dropped labels, the storage
requirements are reduced because only the aggregated distribution values for
a large group of time series are stored.
Note that there are no guarantees on ordering of the labels from
exemplar-to-exemplar and from distribution-to-distribution in the same
stream, and there may be duplicates. It is up to clients to resolve any
ambiguities.
