Description
Add two new per-metric configuration options to the Prometheus plugin's
plugin_attr:disable_labels: A list of built-in label names to drop from a metric, reducing cardinality without changing the metric schema for other labels.disable: A boolean flag to skip registering an entire metric, removing it from/metricsoutput entirely.Both options are configured under
plugin_attr.prometheus.metrics.<metric_name>alongside the existingexpireandextra_labelsfields.Example config:
This addresses high-cardinality issues in dynamic environments (e.g. Kubernetes autoscaling where pod IPs churn rapidly), which can cause prometheus shared dict overflow and excessive memory consumption.
Which issue(s) this PR fixes:
Fixes #12679
