Storage monitoring with Grafana

Painting by Numbers

Conclusions

Grafana lets you create intuitive and meaningful visualizations with TSDB queries without the need for prior training. The tool is intuitive to use and does not require complex knowledge of a query language for simple visualizations. Forums provide ready-made dashboards for various evaluation purposes, but in most cases, the overhead involved in customizing an imported dashboard will be greater than defining your own. The flexible InfluxDB and Telegraf team on the back end collects monitoring data without too much configuration overhead. Once set up, the Telegraf, InfluxDB, and Grafana (TIG) stack can be expanded continuously so that you can monitor your IT environment graphically and seamlessly.
