+==== Which fields are used for the metrics on the Infrastructue home page?
+
+The metrics listed below are provided by the Beats Shippers. Each system type requires their corresponding identity field to be in the same event document:
+
+* Hosts require `host.name`
+* Docker containers require `container.id`
+* Kibernetes pods require `kibernetes.pod.uid`
+
+
+[float]
+===== Host Metrics
+
+*CPU Usage*:: Average of `system.cpu.user.pct` added to the average of `system.cpu.system.pct` divided by `system.cpu.cores`
+
+*Memory Usage*:: Average of `system.memory.actual.used.pct`
+
+*Load*:: Average of `system.load.5`
+
+*Inbound Traffic*:: Derivative of the max of `system.netowrk.in.bytes` scaled to a 1 second rate
+
+*Outbound Traffic*:: Derivative of the max of `system.netowrk.out.bytes` scaled to a 1 second rate
+
+*Log Rate*:: Derivative of the cumulative sum of the document count scaled to a 1 second rate.
+This metric relies on the same indices as the logs.

+===== Docker Container Metrics

+*Memory Usage*:: Average of `docker.memory.usage.pct`
