To be honest, I'm not a very big fan of encoding type and hierarchical
information in a string which has to be reparsed in order to reconstruct the
afore-mentioned information. The problem with this approach is that everything
is very implicit and you don't have a tight coupling (in terms of format)
between the sender and receiver. If something changes at the sender side, you
won't notice at all that you have to change here something as well. Even at
runtime the only thing you see is that you don't see the metrics. This makes it
very hard to debug. I would be in favour of creating for the different types
different messages, e.g. `JobManagerMetric`, `TaskManagerMetric`, `TaskMetric`,
etc. These messages contain the respective information. Furthermore, for the
histogram type case, you will have to do the whole parsing over and over again
instead of doing it once.
