A new tool that generates bulk metrics data to be used in performance and load testing.
It generates directly Cassandra data files (SSTables), which leads to a very fast generation process for large amounts of metrics data.

Receive Metrics via Hawkular Bus
When deployed within Hawkular distribution, the project now accepts metrics via the Hawkular Bus; until now only the REST API had support for Metrics insertion.
Hawkular Metrics currently support publishing of newly inserted metrics to the bus and receiving metrics via the bus.

Sorted Stacked Metrics Results
When requesting stacked metrics aggregation the result is now ordered HWKMETRICS-353
External Integrations
Heapster sink now divides storing to multiple calls. This is an improvement over the initial implementation that had one REST API call per metric (HWKMETRICS-290)
ptrans now works with a Hawkular Metrics instance protected by Hawkular Accounts via Hawkular distribution (HWKMETRICS-342)
Grafana integration via Influxdb compatible end-point allows connections to a Hawkular Metrics instance protected by Hawkular Accounts via Hawkular distribution (HWKMETRICS-343)
