Fluentd is an open source data collector capable of retrieving and receiving event data from several sources and then filtering, buffering, and routing data to different compatible destinations. It utilizes a plug-in system to help you quickly set up specific inputs, apply any required filtering, and send data to your preferred data ingestion platform. Fluentd supports multiple sources and destinations, and it can be deployed to multiple operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and macOS.
Time series databases can help telecommunications companies become more reliable, efficient and productive. The telecommunications industry is undergoing rapid change as a handful of new technologies and government actions change the underlying business landscape and create space for new companies to innovate and disrupt the established players.
InfluxDB has over a dozen client libraries so developers can get started more easily and program in the language they’re most comfortable with. One of our most popular options is the Python client library. InfluxDB supports not just Python but pandas, a tool popular with data scientists for analyzing and manipulating data. You can use the client library to output data from InfluxDB into a DataFrame format pandas can ingest, and you can write pandas DataFrames directly to InfluxDB.
Using scripts with a time-series database helps developers streamline application development, scale workloads and build lean integrations. Time-series data is everywhere, and that reality isn’t going to change. The very nature of time-series data means that time-series workloads differ from a lot of other kinds of data. Given the prevalence of time-series data in our modern, connected world, it’s more important than ever to ensure that developers have tools to manage it.
Time series data (also known as time-stamped data) refers to a collection of observations (data points) measured over time. When plotted on a graph, one of the axes for this type of data will always be time. Because time is part of every observable entity, time series data can be used in all kinds of industries, like the stock market, weather data, logs, and traces.
Is Telegraf too big for your device? Too many plugins in one binary getting you down? Let me introduce you to the Telegraf custom builder – the new tool for reducing Telegraf’s overall memory and disk footprint. In this blog, we will discuss the “what, why, when” and also how to use the new custom builder.
