Can I display a list of sorted items in Grafana?

I would like to display a list of the X largest of a quantity, for a given time period, in grafana. Is that possible?

To make the problem more concrete, let's say I'm storing execution times for a sequence of jobs in graphite like this jobs.[one two three four five...].duration, and every time a job is finished I record the duration.

Now I would like to have a panel display the 3 most expensive jobs (from most to third most expensive), something like:

twelve:  55 sec.
three:   39 sec.
eight:   25 sec:

Is that possible?

Solution

  • Try to wrap you metric list in limit(sortByMaxima(...), 3) function
