• This tasks involves modifying the existing metrics APB https://github.com/aerogearcatalog/metrics-apb
• Components:
  • Metrics service application: containerize it and bind Postgres
  • Postgres: install TimescaleDB extension, create default database, enable timescaleDB extension on that database (Start with https://github.com/sclorg/postgresql-container and the postgresql-apb already available in openshift, if possible)
  • Grafana: (Already in Metrics APB). However, there will be a new dashboard to add to Grafana
• Metrics service should have a readiness check for a 'health' endpoint that says it can connect to postgres OK.

For Postgres, there is an image that has TimescaleDB and Postgres in it:
