MetricsContainer (core 2.44.0 API)

All Superinterfaces:

java.io.Serializable
```
@Experimental(METRICS)
public interface MetricsContainer
extends java.io.Serializable
```
Holds the metrics for a single step. Each of the methods should return an implementation of the appropriate metrics interface for the "current" step.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Default Methods

`Gauge`	`getGauge(MetricName metricName)`	Return the `Gauge` that should be used for implementing the given `metricName` in this container.
`default Histogram`	`getHistogram(MetricName metricName, HistogramData.BucketType bucketType)`	Return the `Histogram` that should be used for implementing the given `metricName` in this container.
