To integrate papertrail and Graphite APIs with your monitoring system, please reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating papertrail and Graphite APIs and how that can support your monitoring system.
No matter your business, all the hardware and applications you use will generate copious amounts of log data. But identifying and fixing issues identified in these logs can sometimes feel like finding a needle in a haystack. That's where a log aggregation service, such as Splunk, Sentry, or Loggly, can be essential for the efficient running of your technology systems.
Papertrail, for example, is a cloud-hosted service that makes log management easy. The service aggregates all your text log files, system logs, and app logs in a single place. With Papertrail, you can view your logs in real-time using a browser, command line, or API interface. You may search your logs in seconds, plus set up alerts to monitor all your important log events.
The hosted service is quick to set up and easy to implement; you can typically install Papertrail across all your systems in minutes. Your less technically skilled staff may view logs without SSH/RDP knowledge or access.
Papertrail aggregates logs for various systems and services, including:
Papertrail log velocity analytics lets you troubleshoot issues. For example, Papertrail can help identify a spike in log entries over a few minutes or monitor log trends over the last two weeks. With Metricfire, you can turbocharge Papertrail log monitoring services to new levels. By integrating Papertrail with the Metricfire platform, you may enjoy metrics displayed on aesthetically pleasing dashboards. All you need to get started are accounts on Papertrail and Hosted Graphite.
Our integration lets you view metrics on essential systems and application log messages on your Hosted Graphite graphs and dashboards. For example, you may receive an insightful Papertrail alert that watches failed deployments and viewable alongside metric changes in Hosted Graphite. By using Metricfire's Hosted Graphite integration, users can look forward to fuss-free monitoring across all Papertrail alerts.
Graphite-API is a tool designed to fetch metrics from time series databases such as Whisper or Cyanite. Once it has gathered the metrics, it then renders graphs or JSON data out of each of these time series. Graphite-API is an API-based alternative to Graphite-web, so it does not have any built-in dashboard. Instead, this AP server tool replicates Graphite-web behavior, and works with the abundant Graphite dashboard applications available on the market such as Grafana.
The Graphite-API application comes with several improvements over Graphite-web:
Graphite API does not come with any web or graphical interfaces. This feature gap is where MetricFire comes into its own.
With our Hosted Graphite solution, we've taken the best parts of open-source Graphite and supercharged them. We also added everything missing in Graphite: a built-in agent, team accounts, granular dashboard permissions, and integrations with other technologies and services like AWS, Heroku, logging tools, and more. Hosted Graphite's advanced filtering lets you choose only the data views you want to see, so you can discard the rest. You can also set up simple rules to discard data you no longer keep, plus receive alerts via email or the Slack messaging platform.

MetricFire is a full-scale platform that provides infrastructure, system, and application monitoring using a suite of open-source monitoring tools. We enable you to use Hosted Graphite and aesthetic custom dashboards to visualize your metrics so you can understand what is happening.
MetricFire offers users a complete ecosystem of end-to-end infrastructure monitoring, comprised of popular open-source monitoring software services: Graphite and popular dashboards. Plugins for many 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 boosts 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:
The key thing to remember is that Hosted Graphite by MetricFire is more than just Graphite. Our Hosted Graphite product actually adds data dimensionality and better data storage.
The benefits of MetricFire are:
