## Description

The Compute Metric Statistics processor can be used to calculate statistics for metrics over fixed time intervals to reduce metric throughput.

## Supported Types

| Metrics | Logs | Traces |
| :------ | :--- | :----- |
| ✓       |      |        |

## Configuration Table

| Parameter | Type       | Default                 | Description                                                                                                                        |
| :-------- | :--------- | :---------------------- | :--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| interval  | `int`      | `60`                    | The interval in seconds on which to aggregate metrics. Calculated metrics will be emitted after the interval passes.               |
| include   | `regex`    | `.*`                    | A regex that must match against the metric's name in order to calculate statistics from it. The default value matches all metrics. |
| stats     | `[]string` | `["min", "max", "avg"]` | A list of statistics to calculate on matched metrics. Valid values are: `min`, `max`, `avg`, `first`, and `last`.                  |

## Example Configuration

### Calculate Average, Minimum, and Maximum

Calculate the average, minimum, and maximum values of each incoming metric, and emit them with a `.avg`, `.min`, and `.max` suffix, respectively.

#### Standalone Processor

```yaml theme={}
apiVersion: bindplane.observiq.com/v1
kind: Processor
metadata:
  id: calculate-avg-min-max
  name: calculate-avg-min-max
spec:
  type: metric_stats
  parameters:
    - name: interval
      value: 60
    - name: include
      value: '.*'
    - name: stats
      value: ['min', 'max', 'avg']
```

### Take the Most Recent Value

Take the last value of a metric over a 60 second interval, and emit the metric with a suffix of `.last`.
