Grafana
Category : latest version
Grafana is (in our opinion) is the best metrics dashboard and graph editor ever made. ElasticWarehouse is distributed with Grafana binaries and preconfigured Grafana dashboard. Dashboard presents most common performance factors useful for monitoring visualization purposes. If you want to integrate with ElasticWarehouse with any notification system, you can easily use some _ewgraphite REST point for that.
To see default metrics dashboard open web-browser, and provide URL: http:/127.0.0.1:10500 . If you launched few ElasticWarehouse instances on the same machine, each of them is going to have it’s own Grafana dashboard available on next available port, like: http:/127.0.0.1:10501, http:/127.0.0.1:10502 etc.
