MinIO server configuration file allows users to provide topology that allows for heterogeneous hostnames, allowing MinIO to deployed in pre-existing environments without any further OS level configurations.

# Cluster Metrics

MinIO collects the following metrics at the cluster level.
Metrics may include one or more labels, such as the server that calculated that metric.

These metrics can be obtained from any MinIO server once per collection by using the following URL:

```shell
https://HOSTNAME:PORT/minio/v2/metrics/cluster
```

Replace ``HOSTNAME:PORT`` with the hostname of your MinIO deployment.

Metrics are organized into groups at paths **relative** to the top-level endpoint above.

## Metrics Request Handling

Each endpoint below can be queried at different intervals as needed via a scrape configuration in Prometheus or a compatible metrics collection tool.

The additional node specific metrics which include additional go metrics or process metrics are exposed at
`<Address for MinIO Node>/minio/v2/metrics/node`.

The additional bucket specific metrics which include additional go metrics or process metrics are exposed at
`<Address for MinIO Node>/minio/v2/metrics/bucket`.

The additional resource specific metrics which include additional go metrics or process metrics are exposed at
