> In 10.0 we shipped a brand new metrics system powered by OTEL
> instrumentation. It has diferent metric names, and is not backward compatible
> with the solr exporter from 9.x
> We are in the process of building some Grafana boards for it, which uncover
> needs for some changes.
> We decided to change internal and OTLP metric names from underscore to dot
> separators (https://github.com/apache/solr/pull/4223) to align with OTEL
> semantic conventions.
> We found two metrics that are pure duplicates with different names.
> Clearly, there is a need for some changes and stabilization of this brand new
> feature.
> Looking back we should have declared the feature as BETA and experimental in
> 10.0, but we did not.
> I therefore propose that we declare it a BETA feature now, by adding a
> disclaimer in Ref Guide and send an [ANNOUNCE] email to the lists.
> As 10.0 is still brand new and likely not yet in production many places, and
> even fewer depending on the new metrics names, we could retroactively delcare
> it BETA from version 10.0.
> That will allow us to tweak things in the next few minor versions. Perhaps we
> want to rename a few metrics with better names. Perhaps some need to change
> slightly.
> It is unfortunate to do such things after a release, but it is better to do
> it now when 19.0 is still fresh. The longer we wait the harder to justify
> changes.
> If the PMC agrees (I don't think we need a vote), I can draft an announce
> mail and a PR against branch_10_0 ref guide.
