This is a well-studied problem in the literature (see [1] and [2]), the question is determining which methods best suit our needs and then implementing it. > Ideally, we should be able to estimate these high percentiles with minimal memory and CPU usage as well as minimal error (e.g. 1% error on 90th, or .1% on 99th). It's also desirable to provide this over different time-based sliding windows, e.g. last 1 min, 5 mins, 15 mins, and 1 hour. > I'll note that this would also be useful in HDFS, or really anywhere latency metrics are kept. > [1] http://www.cs.rutgers.edu/~muthu/bquant.pdf > [2] http://infolab.stanford.edu/~manku/papers/04pods-sliding.pdf -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
