Abstract

   This document describes the distributed data collection mechanism
   that allows multiple data streams to be managed using a single
   subscription.  Specifically, multiple data streams are pushed
   directly to the collector without passing through a broker for
   internal consolidation.

Requirements Language

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

1.  Introduction

   Streaming telemetry refers to sending a continuous stream of
   operational data from a device to a remote receiver.  This provides
   an ability to monitor a network from remote and to provide network
   analytics.  Devices generate telemetry data and push that data to a
   collector for further analysis.  By streaming the data, much better
   performance, finer-grained sampling, monitoring accuracy, and
   bandwidth utilization can be achieved than with polling-based
   alternatives.

   YANG-Push [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push] defines a transport-
   independent subscription mechanism for datastore updates, in which a
