Green Monitoring Stack

Project Status: Active – The project has reached a stable, usable state and is being actively developed. License Build For Better 2024 Winner

Table of contents

About the project

A monitoring stack with samples for collection and data exploration for sustainability purposes.

The data is collected from Network, DC (compute / storage) infrastructure, third-party devices and external sources to be able to understand the energy consumption and its relation to traffic and bandwidth, the cost and the carbon footprint of the environment at various levels of granularity.

KPIs

Technology stack

Architecture Architecture

Captures data from:

  • IOS-XR routers
  • NX-OS switches
  • Meraki switches
  • UCS servers
  • ACI APIC
  • Raritan PDUs
  • Eaton PDUs

Stores data in:

  • InfluxDB v2

Exposes data in:

  • Grafana

Data Flow:

IOS-XR
NX-OS
Meraki
ACI APIC                   -> Telegraf     ->     InfluxDB     -> Grafana
UCS: REDFISH/CIMC/UCSM
Raritan PDUs
Eaton PDUs

Getting started

Prerequisites

Use these instructions.

Configuration

Use these instructions.

Installation

Use these instructions.

Usage

Access

Access the two following WebUIs by replacing the HOST_IP placeholder with the reachable IP address of the host that runs the stack:

  • Grafana - hosts custom visualizations.
  • Influx (credentials based on .env) - for exploration of raw data.
