### AWS OTel Collector Load Test Generator

### Parameters for Metric Generation:
1. Metric Count\
   --metricCount, -m  : (default=1) the number of metrics that should be generated for each metric type. This amount of metrics will be updated/exported per period. 

2. Datapoint Count\
   --datapointCount, -dp : (default=1) the number of data-points that should be created for each metric. Number of data-points updated/exported per period shall be equal to Metric Count * Datapoint Count.

3. Observation Interval\
   --observationInterval, -o : (default=1000 ms) the interval (in ms) at which metric observations/values are updated.

4. Collector Receiver Endpoint\
   --url, -u

5. Data Format\
   --dataFormat -d (eg, otlp, statsd)

### Parameters for Trace Generation:

1. Rate\
   --rate, -r  (eg, 1,000, 10,000 data points per second)
    
2. Collector Receiver Endpoint\
   --url, -u
    
3. Data Format\
   --dataFormat -d (eg, otlp, prometheus, xray)

### OTLP Metrics Load Test Sample Command,
