To integrate Virtual Machines and MetricFire, please reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating Virtual Machines and MetricFire, and see how that benefits your monitoring system.
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:
A virtual machine is the process of creating a computer within a computer. It is a virtualization or emulation of a computer system. A virtual machine has its own CPU, memory, network interface, and storage. This is created on a physical hardware system, and is located in a different location. This can be off-premise, or on-premise. As VM’s provide functionality of a physical computer, they are often implemented with specialized hardware, software, or a combination of the two. These physical machines are known as “hosts”. Hosts use a hypervisor which is used to relocate compute resources (like CPU and memory) between “guest” machines/computers.
These Virtual Machines allow for multiple operating systems to run simultaneously on the same computer. There are 2 common types of virtual machines, System virtual machines (also known as full virtualization VMs), and Process virtual machines. The former provides a substitute for a real machine/computer, while the later are able to execute computer programs in a platform-independent environment.
To integrate Virtual Machines and MetricFire with your monitoring system, sign up for a free trial with MetricFire. Talk with the MetricFire team about how to integrate Virtual Machines and MetricFire, and get Virtual Machines interacting with your MetricFire dashboards in minutes.
“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.”
