To integrate webhooks and collectd with your monitoring system, please reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating webhooks and collectd and how that can support your monitoring system.
With MetricFire, you can use Webhooks in three different ways. First, you can use webhooks generated in your Hosted Graphite account to connect to 3rd party platforms and services, including CircleCi, Pingdom, GitHub, GitLab, Sentry, and more. This will import events from your services to the Hosted Graphite backend that can be viewed as annotations. See our Add-Ons and integrations docs for more details per service.
Second, you can use custom Webhooks as a programmatic notification method for when an alert is triggered. See the Hosted Graphite Alerting Guide for more information.
Third, you can monitor the performance of your application's webhook endpoints using the Telegraf agent:
Install, configure, and deploy the Collectd agent in your systems/servers to collect and forward a wide range of performance metrics. Here are the basic steps, as outlined in the Hosted Graphite collectd docs:
apt-get install collectd
/etc/collect/collectd.conf
MetricFire is a full-scale platform that provides infrastructure, system, and application monitoring using a suite of open-source tools. We will aggregate and store your data as time series metrics, which can be used to build custom dashboards and alerts. MetricFire takes away the burden of self-hosting your own monitoring solution, allowing you more time and freedom to work on your most important tasks.
MetricFire offers a complete ecosystem of end-to-end infrastructure monitoring, comprised of open-source Graphite and Grafana. MetricFire handles the aggregation, storage, and backups of your data, and offers alerting, team features, and API's for easy management of your monitoring environment. You can send server metrics using one of our agents, custom metrics from within your application code, and integration metrics from a variety of popular 3rd party services that we integrate with like Heroku, AWS, Azure, GCP, and many more!
Our Hosted Graphite product has improved upon standard Graphite to add data dimensionality, optimized storage, and offers additional tools and features that provide customers with a robust and well-rounded monitoring solution.
“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.”
