Derived labels

Derived labels are a construct specifically designed for Chronosphere Observability Platform that let you standardize data in Observability Platform without modifying that data permanently. Use derived labels to reduce the complexity of label names and values for metrics, and to simplify span tags for traces.

View derived labels

Select from the following methods to view existing derived labels.

Web
Chronoctl
API

To view derived labels:

In the navigation menu select Platform > Derived Labels to view all available derived labels.
To view values for a derived label, click the caret (>) to expand the label.
Click the three vertical dots icon for any label to take additional actions:
- Click View code config to view a code representation of the derived label. Use the Code Config tool to copy or download the code.
- Click View in Usage Analyzer to open the Telemetry Usage Analyzer with the selected derived label.

If a derived label is being used as a pinned scope, click Configure to navigate to the Scope Configuration page. From there, you can configure a scope.

To display all derived labels with Chronoctl, use this command:

chronoctl derived-labels list

To list specific derived labels using their slugs:

chronoctl derived-labels list --slugs slug_name_1,slug_name_2

To complete this action with the Chronosphere API, use the ListDerivedLabels endpoint.Because the Chronosphere API requires authentication, include an API token with your curl request, as shown in the following example. For more details, see Create an API token.

export CHRONOSPHERE_API_TOKEN="TOKEN"
export CHRONOSPHERE_DOMAIN="INSTANCE.chronosphere.io"

curl -H "API-Token: ${CHRONOSPHERE_API_TOKEN}" \
     -X METHOD "https://${CHRONOSPHERE_DOMAIN}/ENDPOINT_PATH"

Replace the following:

TOKEN: Your API token.
INSTANCE: The subdomain name for your organization’s Observability Platform instance.
METHOD: The HTTP method to use with the request, such as GET or POST.
ENDPOINT_PATH: The specific endpoint you want to access.

Manage derived labels

Create, update, and delete derived labels using Terraform, Chronoctl, or the Observability Platform API.

Creating, modifying, or deleting a derived label can cause unexpected behavior in any location that label was used. Adding a derived label is adding an extra label. Rules that expect a specific set of labels might not match when the derived label is present.

Create a derived label

Select from the following methods to create a derived label.

Chronoctl
Terraform
API

To create a derived label with Chronoctl, use this command:

chronoctl derived-labels create

Run the following command to generate a sample derived label definition you can use as a template:
```
chronoctl derived-labels scaffold
```
In the template, kind: DerivedLabel defines an individual derived label.
With a completed definition, submit it with:
```
chronoctl derived-labels create -f FILE_NAME.yaml
```
Replace FILE_NAME with the name of the YAML definition file you want to use.

See the Chronoctl definition example for a completed derived label definition.

When you run terraform plan to generate an execution plan, Chronosphere automatically tests configurations that include notification policies by submitting them as dry runs. For details, see the Terraform provider documentation.

To create a derived label with Terraform:

Create or edit a Terraform file and add the definition by using the chronosphere_derived_label type, followed by a name in a resource declaration.
Run this command to apply the changes:
```
terraform apply
```

See the Terraform definition example for a completed derived label definition.

To complete this action with the Chronosphere API, use the CreateDerivedLabel endpoint.Because the Chronosphere API requires authentication, include an API token with your curl request, as shown in the following example. For more details, see Create an API token.

export CHRONOSPHERE_API_TOKEN="TOKEN"
export CHRONOSPHERE_DOMAIN="INSTANCE.chronosphere.io"

curl -H "API-Token: ${CHRONOSPHERE_API_TOKEN}" \
     -X METHOD "https://${CHRONOSPHERE_DOMAIN}/ENDPOINT_PATH"

Replace the following:

TOKEN: Your API token.
INSTANCE: The subdomain name for your organization’s Observability Platform instance.
METHOD: The HTTP method to use with the request, such as GET or POST.
ENDPOINT_PATH: The specific endpoint you want to access.

See the API definition example for a completed derived label definition.

Derived label definition examples

The following definition examples show how to format equivalent derived label definition in Chronoctl, Terraform, and the Observability Platform API.

These examples include derived metric labels and span tags in the same definition. However, it’s possible to create a definition that only contains derived metric labels, or that only contains derived span tags.

      ]
    }
  }
}

These examples create a derived label named env with the following label mappings for metrics and span tag mappings for traces:

If a time series contains a label that matches the glob __name__="grpc_*" or __name__="http_*", the label name acme_cluster for that time series maps to the derived label env. This derived label name has the following value mappings:
- The source globs and values staging-*, infra, and alpha map to the derived value internal. For example, the source label/value pair acme_cluster="staging-demo-playground" maps to the derived label/value pair env="internal".
- The source values beta, prod, and prod-eu map to the derived value external. For example, the source label/value pair acme_cluster="prod" maps to the derived label/value pair env="external".
- Any other source values stay the same. For example, because dev isn’t listed in the example definition, the source label/value pair acme_cluster="dev" maps to the derived label/value pair env="dev".
If a time series contains the label __name__="service_uptime", the label name acme_test_cluster for that time series maps to the env label. This derived label name has the following value mappings:
- The source values test and dogfooding map to the derived value internal. For example, the source label/value pair acme_test_cluster=test maps to the derived label/value pair env=internal.
- Any other source values stay the same. For example, because metadata isn’t listed in the example definition, the source label/value pair acme_test_cluster="metadata" maps to the derived label/value pair env="metadata".
The span tags environment and cluster map to the derived span tag env.

Delete a derived label

Select from the following methods to delete a derived label.

Chronoctl
Terraform
API

To delete a derived label with Chronoctl, use this command:

chronoctl derived-labels delete SLUG

Replace SLUG with the slug of the derived label you want to delete.

To delete a resource that’s managed by Terraform:

Edit your Terraform configuration file to remove the pre-existing resource definition.
Run this command to remove the resource from Observability Platform:
```
terraform apply
```

To complete this action with the Chronosphere API, use the DeleteDerivedLabel endpoint.Because the Chronosphere API requires authentication, include an API token with your curl request, as shown in the following example. For more details, see Create an API token.

export CHRONOSPHERE_API_TOKEN="TOKEN"
export CHRONOSPHERE_DOMAIN="INSTANCE.chronosphere.io"

curl -H "API-Token: ${CHRONOSPHERE_API_TOKEN}" \
     -X METHOD "https://${CHRONOSPHERE_DOMAIN}/ENDPOINT_PATH"

Replace the following:

TOKEN: Your API token.
INSTANCE: The subdomain name for your organization’s Observability Platform instance.
METHOD: The HTTP method to use with the request, such as GET or POST.
ENDPOINT_PATH: The specific endpoint you want to access.

Use derived labels for metrics

You can use derived labels to simplify label names and values for metrics. In derived label definitions, these definitions are stored in the metric_label object. The label_name parameter determines the name of the derived metric label. For each source_label included in a definition, the associated filters parameter determines which time series the derived label applies to. If a time series meets one of the filter criteria, the specified source label name from that time series maps to the name of the derived label. For each target_value included in a definition, the associated source_value_globs parameter determines which values from the original source label map to that target value of the derived label. Any values from the original source label that aren’t included in a derived label definition stay the same and map directly to the derived label name. The value_glob and source_value_globs parameters support glob syntax.

It’s not possible to create a derived metric label from the names or values of a different derived label. Each source_label parameter in your definitions must reference a persisted, non-derived label name, and each source_value_globs parameter must reference persisted, non-derived label values.

After you define a derived metric label, you can reference that new label in Metrics Explorer queries in the same way that you can reference persisted, non-derived metrics labels. Additionally, these derived metric labels will appear throughout Observability Platform in the same places as persisted metric labels, like Metrics Catalog.

Best practices

When using derived labels for metrics, Chronosphere recommends following these best practices:

Use mapping labels instead of constructed labels.
Limit the scope of derived labels as much as possible. This lowers the risk of conflicts and reduces the amount of possible results returned by autocomplete for metric labels in Observability Platform.
For derived labels that include multiple source keys, the metric filter for each source key should reference a different time series. In other words, don’t create a derived label with two different source keys that could be included in the same time series.

Existing label policy

If a derived label would apply to a time series that already has a persistent, non-derived label with the same name, the existing_label_policy parameter determines how to resolve this conflict.

KEEP: The label that already exists is used instead of the derived label. This is the default behavior if existing_label_policy is unspecified.
OVERRIDE: The derived label replaces the existing label.

A derived label that applies to one time series can have the same name as an existing label on a different time series. Unless the identical labels are part of the same time series, existing_label_policy has no effect.

Standardize metric label names

Metrics from different sources might use different label names to describe the same or similar things. You can use derived labels to standardize these names, which makes it easier to run related queries without having to remember which source used which original label name. In the following examples, the source labels username and id both refer to user accounts. The derived label account creates a unified label name for consistency.

        }

        source_label = "username"

      }

      name_mappings {
        filters {
          name       = "__name__"
          value_glob = "checkout_*"
        }

        source_label = "id"

      }
    }
  }
}

{
  "derived_label": {
    "description": "usernames and IDs are equivalent",
    "existing_label_policy": "KEEP",
    "label_name": "account",
    "metric_label": {
      "constructed_label": {},
      "mapping_label": {
        "name_mappings": [
          {
            "filters": [
              {
                "name": "__name__",
                "value_glob": "login_*"
              },
              {
                "name": "__name__",
                "value_glob": "signup_*"
              }
            ],
            "source_label": "username"
          },
          {
            "filters": [
              {
                "name": "__name__",
                "value_glob": "checkout_*"
              }
            ],
            "source_label": "id"
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

After creating this derived label, the query {__name__="login_count",account="alice"} returns the same results as {__name__="login_count",username="alice"}. Similarly, the query {__name__="checkout_attempts",account="12345"} returns the same results as {__name__="checkout_attempts",id="12345"}. Because no value mappings were created, the account derived label always gets its values from the original values of either username or id.

Standardize metric label values

Metrics from a single source might have a large number of values associated with the same label name. You can use derived labels to standardize these values across Observability Platform, which makes it easier to query multiple values at once. In the following examples, a source label named code has possible values for a wide variety of HTTP status codes. The derived label status-level combines similar HTTP statuses into a fewer number of values.

                  "500",
                  "502",
                  "503",

              }
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

After creating this derived label, the query {__name__="requests_total",status-level="400"} returns the same results as {__name__="requests_total",code=~"400|401|403|404"}. However, only source values that were explicitly mapped were affected. Because the source value 100 wasn’t mapped, the query {__name__="requests_total",status-level="100"} returns the same results as {__name__="requests_total",code="100"}.

Standardize metric label names and values

You can use derived labels to standardize metric label names and values at the same time. In the following examples, the source labels menu_item and SKU both refer to different foods offered at a restaurant. Additionally, both menu_item and SKU have a wide variety of possible values. The derived label type creates a unified label name for consistency and also combines similar foods into a fewer number of values.

            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

After creating this derived label, the query {__name__="orders_placed",type="sandwich"} returns the same results as {__name__="orders_placed",menu_item=~"BLT|club_sandwich|grilled_cheese"}. Similarly, the query {__name__="profits_made",type="soup"} returns the same results as {__name__="profits_made",SKU=~"44444|55555"}. However, only source values that were explicitly mapped were affected. If the original menu_item label has a possible value panini, then that value wouldn’t map to type="sandwich". Instead, the query {__name__="orders_placed",type="panini"} returns the same results as {__name__="orders_placed",menu_item="panini"}.

Mapping labels versus constructed labels

In derived label definitions, the metric_label object is parent to two child objects: constructed_label and mapping_label. Each of these child objects offers a different way to define derived labels for metrics.

Mapping labels: Defined in mapping_label. These are the primary way to define derived labels, and are fully supported throughout Observability Platform.
Constructed labels: Defined in constructed_label. These aren’t fully supported throughout Observability Platform.

Chronosphere recommends using mapping derived labels instead of constructed derived labels. Although they follow different syntax in their definitions, it’s possible to create equivalent derived labels for metrics by using either mapping labels or constructed labels. Additionally, constructed labels behave less precisely and can have unexpected conflicts with other persisted or derived labels.

Constructed label example

All of the previous examples in this guide use mapping labels. The following example shows how to format a constructed label definition in Chronoctl:

api_version: v1/config
kind: DerivedLabel
spec:
  name: abc
  slug: abc
  label_name: abc
  description: derived label abc
  existing_label_policy: KEEP
  metric_label:
    constructed_label:
      value_definitions:
        - value: baz
          filters:
            - name: foo
              value_glob: bar
            - name: name
              value_glob: xyz_*
        - value: cake
          filters:
            - name: foo
              value_glob: dessert
            - name: __name__
              value_glob: xyz_*
    mapping_label: {}

This constructed label definition is equivalent to the following mapping label definition:

api_version: v1/config
kind: DerivedLabel
spec:
  name: abc
  slug: abc
  label_name: abc
  description: derived label abc
  existing_label_policy: KEEP
  metric_label:
    constructed_label: {}
    mapping_label:
      name_mappings:
        - filters:
            - name: __name__
              value_glob: xyz_*
          source_label: foo
          value_mappings:
          - source_value_globs:
              - bar
            target_value:  baz
          - source_value_globs:
              - dessert
            target_value:  cake

Use derived labels for traces

You can use derived labels to simplify span tags for traces. In derived label definitions, these definitions are stored in the span_tag object. The label_name parameter determines the name of the derived span tag, and the source_tag parameters specify which source tags to map to this derived span tag.

It’s not possible to create a derived span tag from a different derived span tag. Each source_tag parameter in your definitions must reference a persisted, non-derived span tag.

After you define a derived span tag, you can reference that new span tag in Trace Explorer queries in the same way that you can reference persisted, non-derived span tags. Additionally, those derived span tags will appear throughout Observability Platform in the same places as persisted span tags, like DDx output.

Standardize span tags

In the following truncated examples, the source tags link and page map to the derived span tag url.

api_version: v1/config
kind: DerivedLabel
spec:
  name: url
  slug: url
  label_name: url
  description: derived label for URLs
  existing_label_policy: KEEP
  span_tag:
    name_mappings:
      - source_tag: link
      - source_tag: page

resource "chronosphere_derived_label" "url-derived-label" {
  name        = "URL derived label"
  slug        = "url-derived-label"
  description = "This is my derived label for urls"
  label_name  = "url"

  span_tag {
    name_mappings {
      source_tag = "link"
    }
    name_mappings {
      source_tag = "page"
    }
  }
}

            "page"
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  }
