So, if the average value of a metric is 1000 +and its standard deviation is 100 (meaning that it variates from 900 to 1100), then `cv` is 10%. + +This is an easy way to check the % variation, without using absolute values. + +For example, you may trigger an alarm if your web server requests/sec `cv` is above 20 (`%`) +over the last minute. So if your web server was serving 1000 reqs/sec over the last minute, +it will trigger the alarm if had spikes below 800/sec or above 1200/sec. + +## how to use + +Use it in alarms like this: + +``` + alarm: my_alarm + on: my_chart +lookup: cv -1m unaligned of my_dimension + units: % + warn: $this > 20 +``` + +The units reported by `cv` is always `%`. + +It can also be used in APIs and badges as `&group=cv` in the URL. + +## Examples + +Examining last 1 minute `successful` web server responses: + +- ![](https://registry.my-netdata.io/api/v1/badge.svg?chart=web_log_nginx.response_statuses&dimensions=success&group=min&after=-60&label=min) +- ![](https://registry.my-netdata.io/api/v1/badge.svg?chart=web_log_nginx.response_statuses&dimensions=success&group=average&after=-60&label=average&value_color=yellow) +- ![](https://registry.my-netdata.io/api/v1/badge.svg?chart=web_log_nginx.response_statuses&dimensions=success&group=cv&after=-60&label=coefficient+of+variation&value_color=orange&units=pcent) +- ![](https://registry.my-netdata.io/api/v1/badge.svg?chart=web_log_nginx.response_statuses&dimensions=success&group=max&after=-60&label=max) + +## References + +Check <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_variation>. + + diff --git a/web/api/queries/stddev/stddev.c b/web/api/queries/stddev/stddev.c new file mode 100644 index 0000000..92a67b4 --- /dev/null +++ b/web/api/queries/stddev/stddev.c @@ -0,0 +1,173 @@ +// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-3.0-or-later + +#include "stddev.h" + + +// ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- +// stddev + +// this implementation comes from: +// https://www.johndcook.com/blog/standard_deviation/ + +struct grouping_stddev { + long count; + NETDATA_DOUBLE m_oldM, m_newM, m_oldS, m_newS; +}; + +void grouping_create_stddev(RRDR *r, const char *options __maybe_unused) { + r->internal.grouping_data = onewayalloc_callocz(r->internal.owa, 1, sizeof(struct grouping_stddev)); +} + +// resets when switches dimensions +// so, clear everything to restart +void grouping_reset_stddev(RRDR *r) { + struct grouping_stddev *g = (struct grouping_stddev *)r->internal.grouping_data; + g->count = 0; +} + +void grouping_free_stddev(RRDR *r) { + onewayalloc_freez(r->internal.owa, r->internal.grouping_data); + r->internal.grouping_data = NULL; +} + +void grouping_add_stddev(RRDR *r, NETDATA_DOUBLE value) { + struct grouping_stddev *g = (struct grouping_stddev *)r->internal.grouping_data; + + g->count++; + + // See Knuth TAOCP vol 2, 3rd edition, page 232 + if (g->count == 1) { + g->m_oldM = g->m_newM = value; + g->m_oldS = 0.0; + } + else { + g->m_newM = g->m_oldM + (value - g->m_oldM) / g->count; + g->m_newS = g->m_oldS + (value - g->m_oldM) * (value - g->m_newM); + + // set up for next iteration + g->m_oldM = g->m_newM; + g->m_oldS = g->m_newS; + } +} + +static inline NETDATA_DOUBLE mean(struct grouping_stddev *g) { + return (g->count > 0) ?
