To integrate Virtual Storage Area Networks and Graphite with your monitoring system, please reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating Virtual Storage Area Networks and Graphite and how that can support your monitoring system.
A virtual storage area network (VSAN) is similar to a storage area network which is implemented in cloud and virtualization environments. It is a logical partitioning within a storage area network offered to “guests”. It can be used by internal or external IT services and solutions, and allows end users to build on top of a physical SAN through virtualization. VSANs are often implemented with virtual machines and virtual servers.
Graphite is an open source enterprise-ready time-series database. It helps you store, query and visualize your time-series data from systems, websites, devices, servers or all of them together at the same time. As it is open-source, Graphite is free to use. However, with open source software, there are maintenance, scalability, and team sharing issues. Installing Graphite can become quite an inconvenient and lengthy experience.
Hosted Graphite is offered by MetricFire. MetricFire's Hosted Graphite is maintained, updated, and hosted for ultimate ease of use. This means setup is convenient and quick, while it also addresses the scalability and team sharing issues found with open source Graphite.
Graphite is great for it's high performance, simple architecture and easy-to-use features. It has proven it's usage among the top organizations in the corporate world.
