Describes a property of a system to be measured, and contains all the necessary information to create the actual instrument instances used to measure and record said property. Practically, a Metric can be seen as a group instruments that measure different dimensions (via tags) of the same property of the system.
All instruments belonging to a given metric share the same settings and only differ from each other by the unique combination of tags used to create them.
