Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Performance Monitoring - RHEL 7.4 Post 303021948 by Peasant on Tuesday 21st of August 2018 08:09:55 AM
Old 08-21-2018
Well, i cannot say fascinated, since i've used it on home computer (fairly complex smartos environment with dozens of machines).

Currently i use Cacti, since i do not wish not to use agent software if
possible.
I just don't trust anyone Smilie
Check out the new Cacti, it's quite nice nowdays and even looks fancy.
SNMP is quite enough for 95% of monitoring. To bad is not widely accepted.

For else i have (for now) crontab with various stats* and plot.
This is for drill down analysis if required.

As for Prometheus, i actually love those kind of products you mention.
A lot of options and features, complex.

It's a kind of product you think upfront what you want, then fire and forget.

As for features - if we talk whole stack....

I like API - get graph with URL, inputting what you want directly into url.
When you draw a graph from gui it gives you a nice URL to use as well (or send around).

Language is not strange to me (GO), i personally like it and explored it a bit, should work on just any unix out there.

Alerting API is quite broad. From mails to endpoint API(s) to various stuff.

Last but not least, official client libs for java, ruby, go and scala.
Other unofficial in large numbers.
Include metrics in your apps is something i have yet to see from others Smilie
This can lower the debug time and/or expensive software such as dynatrace.

Since you are a ruby fan, take it for a spin Smilie

It's really fast with nginx infront(reverse proxy and internal load balancer), even on couple of AMD FM1 cores @ home, running that and dozens of smartos vms in virtualbox.

I'm willing to suggest this product to replace Cacti completely in my work environment, gradually for new projects.

I'm writing this as totally not affiliated with Prometheus or Cacti in any way.

Regards
Peasant.

NAME
The eXtented eXosip stack - libeXosip2 Version 3.6.0 Modules How-To initialize libeXosip2. How-To initiate, modify or terminate calls. How-To send or update registrations. Detailed Description libeXosip2 Version 3.6.0 See also: http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/exosip What is eXosip libeXosip2 implements the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP -rfc3261-) libeXosip2 is GPL (COPYING). Please understand the licencing details before using it! For any use of this library beyond the rights granted to you by the GPL license, please contact my company at jack@atosc.org. What is the relation between osip &; eXosip2 The GNU osip stack is the first step needed to implement SIP applications. As a low layer stack, there is no limitation in the way to use it, but the very large API makes it rather complex and not suitable for beginners. The eXtended eXosip library is based on osip and implements a lot more SIP stuff so you can quickly build compliant SIP applications. The API is enough flexible to allow you to control and complete SIP messages. Thus, it keeps the stack extensible. While osip can be used for any SIP applications, eXosip2 only provide APIs to control endpoints. What is SIP SIP is an IP telephony protocol made by the IETF. It is an effort to create a simple (telephony is never simple) and powerful protocol for next generation telephony systems. SIP features SIP is not just about telephony. It's much more that what you expect from phones. SIP means mobility, video, textual call information, file exchange, instant messaging, presence support and much more! eXosip2 is free software As eXosip2 is GPL, you MUST choose to release your SIP applications based on eXosip2 under the GPL license. For any use of this library beyond the rights granted to you by the GPL license, please contact my company at jack@atosc.org. With oSIP (which is LGPL), you still have the choice to implement close source application and link with oSIP. For the benefit of the community (and for your own benefit), please consider implementing your application in GPL. Still with osip, you have to respect the license terms. Mainly, users of your software must be able to fix bugs in osip themselves. (they must have the source code, be able to compile it and link your product with the new version.) Thanks Thanks to all the contributors and to all bug reporters. Enjoy osip! Author Generated automatically by Doxygen for libeXosip2 from the source code.
