We've deployed `prometheus-mysqld-exporter` to put mysql metrics into prometheus in {T126757}. Most functionality provided by tendril is already there, though some things are missing:
[] multi-source replication metrics
[] audit-type functionality to list in a table e.g. (mysql_version, lag, qps) currently it isn't possible in grafana to have tables merging multiple metrics
[] fetch replication metrics from pt-hearthbeat (tracked in {T141968})
[] performance_schema upstream monitoring is unflexible, and it may require a separate prometheus instance for privacy reasons
[] prometheus configuration for mysql host/shard/role/etc is manual, should be automated via puppetdb. Also note that "role" (master/slave) should be exported by the machine itself not in the prometheus configuration, this makes things easier when changing master/slave. Shard OTOH doesn't change for the lifetime of the machine (?) and can be put in the prometheus configuration
