R710-Fan-Control
A fork of R710-IPMI-TEMP from NoLooseEnds/Scripts, generalised to a fan control daemon for Dell Poweredge servers. Has reported to work on R710s, R520, R730. Allows more flexible control of the fan throttling vs the vanilla iDrac control which tends to ramp the fans up to full velocity the moment you add non-Dell hardware.

InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
I use https://github.com/spacelama/R710-Fan-Control/ on my R730XD, as I have non-Dell SSDs installed and it's the only way to keep fans below 60%. You need to enable the virtual network interface for iDRAC to be connected to directly from your running OS, otherwise you will need to setup a user for the script to connect as over your regular network.
