OPAL¶

New `align` verb and `m()` function for working with metrics.¶

align aggregates time-series data into a single data point for each time bin, with simplified function-based arguments instead of rollup and an options() object. Metrics helper function m() specifies which metric to align.

// Computes the per-second rate of “requests_total” metric and the average of “memory_used” metric, 
// for each 5m time bin.
align 5m, requests: rate(m("requests_total")), memory_used: avg(m("memory_used"))
