September 2025

1 Commits • 1 Features

Sep 1, 2025

Month: 2025-09. Focused on delivering measurable VTAP resource monitoring capabilities in deepflowio/deepflow. Key feature delivered: a VTAP CPU utilization API endpoint that reports total CPUs used by VTAPs. This enables capacity planning and observability improvements by providing a dedicated API to fetch CPU usage. Impact highlights: - Provides real-time visibility into VTAP resource usage, enabling proactive capacity planning and cost optimization. - Reduces manual querying for VTAP CPU usage and supports automated dashboards and alerts. Business value: - Improved capacity planning accuracy, better SLA adherence, and potential cost savings through optimized resource allocation. Notes: - Commit included: 4d0a48a1539ee04bf6fec6d6958ac3d4769005ce (feat: add get vtap-cpu-num api).
