org.hawkular.inventory.api.model.AbstractElement<B,U>

org.hawkular.inventory.api.model.MetricType

public final class MetricType
extends TenantBasedEntity<MetricType.Blueprint,MetricType.Update>

Metric type defines metadata of metrics of the same type. Metric types are owned by resource types in the same way as metrics are owned by resources (i.e. multiple resource types can "own" a single metric type).
