To integrate Virtual Routing and Forwarding and MetricFire, please reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating Virtual Routing and Forwarding 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:
Cloud Monitoring
Hosted Graphite
Dashboards
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:
Simple, low-cost pricing
A structured pricing model based on unique time series metrics allows you to work within your budget. The predictability and transparent pricing allow you to keep your costs in check and plan for the future. 1 metric is 1 metric.
Easy-to-use dashboards
Easily share your dashboards with clients for free.
Responsive alerting
Alert notification integrations PagerDuty, Slack, email, and webhooks.
Freedom of customization
Custom metrics through your code.
Fantastic customer support
Highly available support is provided by engineers for engineers to get you set up quickly.
Enterprise-ready
Dedicated clusters for users that need their own environment.
In IP-based (Internet Protocol) network routers, Virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) is a technology that allows multiple instances of a routing table to exist in the same router at the same time. These multiple instances of a routing table are able to work simultaneously. This eliminated the need for multiple devices, as network paths are allowed to be segmented.
VRFs are also known to increase network security and improve network functionality due to the segregated traffic without requiring multiple routers. VRF can also be known as VPN routing. Internet service providers often create separate virtual private networks via VRFs, which can boost security by eliminating the need for encryption and authentication.

“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.”
