Re: [Question #88865]: Are there any other examples of agents for adding data to graphite?

 

Question #88865 on Graphite changed:

    Status: Open => Answered

chrismd proposed the following answer:
I think most Graphite users write custom scripts to send their data.
There is no real standard client application or library yet. This is
probably because everyone has some unique data to collect and the
protocol is pretty simple. That said, not every user of graphite should
have to be a programmer. I think the best solution would be to add
support to existing monitoring tools that collect data to be able to
send that data to graphite for storage and visualization. One such tool
that may support this soon is OpenNMS. Another tool that already can do
this is Munin, http://munin.projects.linpro.no/. A ruby script was
contributed to graphite (look in the contrib/ subdir in trunk) to
achieve this.

If anyone else has other applications that can talk to graphite, please
let us know.
