Abstract

A computing resource monitoring service receives a command to read a metric pertaining to computing resources provided to the customer. The command may comprise a hash key for the metric. Based on the key, the service may select one or more data zones, each of the data zones comprising one or more storage nodes wherein metrics are stored. The service may be configured to obtain a schedule of storage nodes from the data zones in order to determine the active storage nodes based at least in part on the key. The service may receive a response comprising the metric from one or more storage nodes from the one or more active nodes based at least in part on the key. The service may apply agreement criteria to the responses. If the responses do not meet the criteria, the service may perform a reconciliation process to generate a compiled response.
