To integrate Heroku and Logentries with your monitoring system, reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating Heroku and Logentries and how that can support your monitoring system.
Heroku is Infrastructure as a Service that was built with developers in mind. It is a Platform as a Service used to host applications, and it was originally built for Ruby language. It has since expanded from just Ruby to Java, Node.js, Scala, Clojure, Python, PHP, and Go.
Not only does Heroku offer server, network and general computation - it offers everything a developer needs to get straight to building their app.
Heroku is able to scale instantly, both vertically and horizontally. Heroku provides code rollback, allowing you to roll back your code to a previous version instantly. Heroku integrates with GitHub so that any repo can be set to auto-deploy in Heroku.
Heroku offers Postgres(SQL) as a Service, as well as Add-ons built by both Heroku and 3rd parties to make sure you have every tool you need. In the Heroku Add-ons store, you can get everything from performance monitoring and data stores to development tools, search, and more.
To monitor your Heroku apps, you can easily integrate your Heroku app with MetricFire. The MetricFire Heroku monitoring add-on surpasses the default Heroku monitoring tool by allowing users to customize graphs feely. In MetricFire, users can select very granular time frames and zoom into their data. The default Heroku monitoring tool is unable to display very granular information over a long period of time.
Also, MetricFire has automatically generated dashboards specifically designed for Heroku apps. Once you have set up the MetricFire integration with Heroku, you will be able to see your automatically generated dashboards tailored to your Heroku app.
In your automatically generated dashboard for Heroku you can see dyno metrics for Load Average, Memory and Swap, as well as all of your HTTP metrics. With a few custom metrics, you can easily monitor your business metrics and app performance as well. Monitor your Heroku app with MetricFire today!
Logentries is a service that automatically collects and centralizes all of your log data into one secure location in any format. From there, you can search and visualize all your aggregated log data. It uses both agent-based and agentless collection of logs. If an issue occurs, Logentries shows an aggregated tail view so you can review what is happening across your logs in real-time. With Logentries, you can dramatically reduce the time you spend diagnosing and resolving issues.
Logentries is a fully scalable service that dynamically auto-scales your services environment as log volumes expand and change. By aggregating all your logs into one secure location, you can efficiently monitor and track valuable log events in real-time, without the hassle of complicated configurations.
Logentries lets you monitor and track essential server resource usages, such as CPU, memory, and network and disk usage. Plus, it aggregates all server and application logs. By aggregating all your logs in one place, you can quickly review your application performance metrics, usage trends, and application load. This strategy helps you better understand how end-users are using your applications and how their behavior might affect other performance metrics.
You can use your log data to better understand application activity from client-side front-end apps to your back-end components for fine-grained user tracking. And while Logentries offers a straightforward, real-time approach to monitoring and accessing valuable application usage data, there is an even better way to monitor your aggregated log data.
By integrating Logentries with the Metricfire platform, you can turbocharge your log monitoring services to new levels and enjoy metrics displayed on aesthetically pleasing dashboards. You can import Logentries data into Hosted Graphite using the leexportpy tool. This flexible and extensible Python application enables log search results to be easily exported to third-party services, including MetricFire.

MetricFire is a full-scale platform that offers infrastructure, system, and application monitoring using a suite of open-source monitoring tools. The platform allows you to use Hosted Graphite and Dashboards-as-a-Service to visualise your metrics on aesthetic dashboards.
MetricFire offers its users a complete ecosystem of end-to-end infrastructure monitoring, which is made up of popular open-source monitoring software services: Graphite, and Grafana. As well, plugins for a number of other open-source projects are preconfigured, such as StatsD, collectd, and Kubernetes. You get all these within a hosted environment as a single product. Not only does MetricFire fit well into the infrastructure monitoring use-case, such as network monitoring and server monitoring, but we also do application monitoring and business intelligence.
Through this hosted environment, MetricFire works to boost the unique features of open-source projects to give you more functionality than the original products. Below are some of the MetricFire features at a glance:

“We now have over ten times the amount of metrics we started with, and on different accounts. One of the great things about MetricFire is that scaling to support this increase has been hassle-free, requiring no additional work on our side.”
“Building and managing an on-premise installation at this scale would require a lot of engineer time, especially in the first year...we use this engineering time to work on initiatives closer to our core business”
“There’s complete transparency with everything MetricFire do which means we can accurately predict what we’ll be spending and comfortably keep within our budget.”
"Every time I have a question, I get an answer from support after just a couple of hours. Their technical knowledge is excellent.”
