    • Project mention: OpenTelemetry Is Too Complicated | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-03

    The referred library is the official OpenTelemetry package for reading metrics in Go language [1] - more details are available at [2].

    Note that we at VictoriaMetrics like the idea of unified observability standard like OpenTelemetry. The issue is in the current otel implementation. It is too bloated and very inefficient. This contradicts to our experience with observability cases, which need very optimized format for metrics' transfer in order to reduce costs on CPU and network traffic needed to transfer and process these metrics.

    VictoriaMetrics continues investing in OpenTelemetry by providing integration docs [3] and improving the existing functionality for otel metrics' ingestion [4].

  • Collectd

    The system statistics collection daemon. Please send Pull Requests here!

    • Project mention: μMon: Stupid simple monitoring | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-24

    https://collectd.org/ does the gathering (and writing to RRDTool database, if you so desire) part very well. Many plugins, easy to add more (just return one line of text)

    Still need RRD viewere but that's not a huge stack

    And it scales all the way to hundreds of hosts, as on top of network send/receive of stats it supports few other write formats aside from just RRD files.

  • Diamond

    Diamond is a python daemon that collects system metrics and publishes them to Graphite (and others). It is capable of collecting cpu, memory, network, i/o, load and disk metrics. Additionally, it features an API for implementing custom collectors for gathering metrics from almost any source.

  • KairosDB

    Fast scalable time series database
