Graphite

Integrating non-whisper data

Asked by James

Is there any way to add support for data that is not stored via Graphite?

If I already store some data in a database, but I want to view it alongside data in Graphite, is there anyway to support that without copying the data to graphite?

That's been a goal of mine for a while and I'm happy to say its pretty close to being available. It will definitely be in the next release. It will probably be ready on trunk next week or so. It will require you to implement a plugin for your datasource though.

Is there any documentation for this?

Is there any work being done on this that will be incorporated into a main branch soon?

What a bout documentation? I'd love to be able to move our Graphite system onto an HBase backend rather than its current datastore.

I know that mleinartas was working on the ceres stuff but I don't know the status.

It should be finally getting merged very soon after the 0.9.10 release which is upcoming.

If you want a preview, here's a bit of what the new storage code looks like in the webapp:
https://github.com/mleinart/graphite/blob/graphite_megacarbon/webapp/graphite/finders.py
https://github.com/mleinart/graphite/blob/graphite_megacarbon/webapp/graphite/readers.py

With this, adding a new data source type is merely creating a finder and a reader.

Can you help with this problem?
