接手为微服务系统搞链路监控项目一年多,也和skywalking打了一年多的交道,也应该有个总结,主要谈一下搭建监控系统遇到的难点和解决方案。
说明: 本文的代码均由本地演示代码替代,非实际代码

为啥选skywalking,因为由于微服务分成多个团队在开发,有平台,有应用,日志分析已经力不从心,下决心引入分布式监控,skywalking对我们来说有两个基本好处,1) 代码入侵非常低(最后仅仅在多线程跟踪,加了几处装饰器),监控基本可以独立安排版本或者变更,这对管理友好 2) Agent+插件模式对应用性能影响不大,预估不太会出幺蛾子…

开发过程中,我们遇到一些问题,本篇先聚焦第一个问题:
Agent插件二次开发,分两类
1) 修改,例如对dubbo-plugin,把DubboInstrumentation.java中

public class DubboInstrumentation extends ClassInstanceMethodsEnhancePluginDefine {

    // add logger
    private static final ILog LOGGER = LogManager.getLogger(DubboInstrumentation.class);

    private static final String ENHANCE_CLASS = "com.alibaba.dubbo.monitor.support.MonitorFilter";  //需修改
    private static final String INTERCEPT_CLASS = "org.apache.skywalking.apm.plugin.dubbo.DubboInterceptor";

    @Override
    protected ClassMatch enhanceClass() {
        return NameMatch.byName(ENHANCE_CLASS);
    }

    @Override
    public ConstructorInterceptPoint[] getConstructorsInterceptPoints() {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public InstanceMethodsInterceptPoint[] getInstanceMethodsInterceptPoints() {
        return new InstanceMethodsInterceptPoint[] {
            new InstanceMethodsInterceptPoint() {
                @Override
                public ElementMatcher<MethodDescription> getMethodsMatcher() {

                    //LOGGER.info("Dubbo Class is {}", ENHANCE_CLASS);
                    return named("invoke");
                }

                @Override
                public String getMethodsInterceptor() {
                    return INTERCEPT_CLASS;
                }

                @Override
                public boolean isOverrideArgs() {
                    return false;
                }
            }
        };
    }
}

新增一个DubboProviderInstrumentation,根据本地应用改成 ENHANCE_CLASS = “com.comstar.cnp.common.infrastructure.DubboProviderFilter”;
以及 DubboComsumerInstrumentation,根据本地应用改成 ENHANCE_CLASS = “com.comstar.cnp.common.infrastructure.DubboConSumerFilter”;

并修改skyworking-plugin.def文件
dubbo=org.apache.skywalking.apm.plugin.dubbo.DubboInstrumentation
dubbo=org.apache.skywalking.apm.plugin.dubbo.DubboProviderInstrumentation
dubbo=org.apache.skywalking.apm.plugin.dubbo.DubboComsumerInstrumentation

保证dubbo跟踪链正常

2 ) 另外如基于netty的非标应用,就需要开发自定义Agent
按SkyWalking Agent的开发规范,需要开发Instrumentation,定义拦截点的位置(类和方法),并开发拦截器Interceptor,在beforeMethod创建 Span 并把需要的参数,塞到上下文Tag(标签)中,

ublic class seckillwithPoolAndMQInterceptor implements InstanceMethodsAroundInterceptor {
    @Override
    public void beforeMethod(EnhancedInstance objInst, Method method, Object[] allArguments, Class<?>[] classes, MethodInterceptResult methodInterceptResult) throws Throwable {
        String methodName = method.getName();
        System.out.println("before..."+methodName);
        String operationName ="seckillwithPoolAndMQ";

        ContextCarrier contextCarrier = new ContextCarrier();
        CarrierItem carrierItem = contextCarrier.items();

        Object pid= allArguments[0];
        Object uid= allArguments[1];

        //carrierItem.setHeadValue(ctxName.name());

        //创建一个EntrySpan

        //AbstractSpan span= ContextManager.createEntrySpan(operationName, contextCarrier);
        AbstractSpan span= ContextManager.createLocalSpan(operationName);
        span.setComponent(ComponentsDefine.TOMCAT);
        span.tag(new StringTag(10, "method"), methodName);
        span.tag(new StringTag(20, "pid"), pid.toString());
        span.tag(new StringTag(30, "uid"), uid.toString());
        span.setLayer(SpanLayer.CACHE);

        //缓存上下文
        objInst.setSkyWalkingDynamicField(ContextManager.capture());
    }

最后修改skyworking-plugin.def文件,保证插件正常运行
testdemo2-0.1=org.apache.skywalking.apm.plugin.demo2.define1.Demo2Instrumentation

解决插件的问题后,我们进一步发现Skywalking原生提供100多种插件,监控数据项多达数万项,但是这些数据,并不是全部都需要重点关注,冗余的监控数据,一方面会影响正常监控,另一方面,我们也发现过多的监控数据甚至会影响 OAP的性能,最夸张的问题可能是云服务和大量监控导致 SW sgementId产生重复,者迫使我们要采取适当的措施,后续,我们将聚焦对SkyWalking 监控数据分类筛选和展示
