Abstract
A computing resource monitoring service receives a plurality of measurements for a metric associated with an auto-scale group. Each measurement is associated with metadata for the measurement, which specifies attributes for the measurement. The computing resource monitoring service determines, for each measurement and based at least in part on the metadata, a fully qualified metric identifier for the measurement. The service partitions the plurality of measurements into a plurality of logical partitions associated with one or more in-memory datastores. The service transmits the measurements from the plurality of logical partitions to the one or more datastores for storage of the measurements. These measurements are provided to one or more computing resource managers for the auto-scale group to enable automatic scaling of computing resources of the group based at least in part on the measurements.
