To integrate Virtual Local Area Networks and Graphite with your monitoring system, please reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating Virtual Local Area Networks and Graphite and how that can support your monitoring system.
A virtual local area network (VLAN) logically segments a LAN into different broadcast domains. A broadcast domain is divided and secluded in a computer network at the data link layer (OSI layer 2). This allows for network administrators to group hosts together. This is possible even if the hosts are not directly connected to the same network switch and are even in different locations.
If devices must be kept separated but need to share the cabling of a physical network, VLANs are used. This prevents these devices directly interacting and colliding with one another. An example of VLANs being used is by Internet hosting services. To separate customers' private zones from one other these internet hosting services use VLANs. This allows for each customer's servers to be in a single network segment, not being reliant on where the individual servers are located within the data center.
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.

Talk with the MetricFire team about how to integrate Virtual Local Area Networks and Graphite and get Virtual Local Area Networks and Graphite interacting with your MetricFire dashboards directly.
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:
“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.”
