title: Calculate the number of requests per second using Spring Boot Actuator
body: <p>I want to calculate the number of requests per second for a particular URL from a Spring Boot 2 application, also the time taken for each request (latency) in milliseconds. We can see the following metrics from Actuator/Prometheus: </p>
  
  <pre class="lang-none prettyprint-override"><code>http_server_request_config_seconds_count  
  http_server_request_config_seconds_sum  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm confused how to plot this in Prometheus to get my result. Do I need to add a histogram or quantiles?</p>
