Note: Sysdig follows the Prometheus-compabtible naming convention for both metrics and labels as opposed to the previous statsd-compatible, legacy Sysdig naming convention. However, this page still shows metrics in the legacy Sysdig naming convention. Until this page is updated, see Metrics and Label Mapping for the mapping between Sysdig legacy and Prometheus naming conventions.
