Metrics Collectors

• Collectd - Daemon which collects system and application performance metrics periodically and provides mechanisms to store the values in a variety of ways, for example in RRD files.
• Diamond - Python daemon that collects system metrics and publishes them to Graphite (and others).
• Logster - Parse log files, generate metrics for Graphite and Ganglia.
• Phantomas - PhantomJS-based web performance metrics collector and monitoring tool.
• Statsd - Daemon for easy but powerful stats aggregation.
• Telegraf - The plugin-driven server agent for collecting & reporting metrics.

Metrics Databases

• DalmatinerDB - Fast distributed metrics database.
• InfluxDB - Scalable datastore for metrics, events, and real-time analytics.
• KairosDB - Cassandra backed time series database, initially a fork of OpenTSDB.
• Kenshin - Time-series database alternative to Graphite Whisper with 40x improvement in IOPS.
• Metrictank - Cassandra-backed, metrics2.0 based, multi-tenant timeseries database for Graphite and friends.
• OpenTSDB - Time series database running on top of HBase.
• Prometheus - Monitoring system and time series database.
• Warp 10 - Complete (Geo) Time Series platform, handles storage and analytics via a dedicated language called WarpScript. Runs from Raspberry Pi to large clusters on HBase.
• Whisper - File-based time-series database format for Graphite.

Metrics UI

• Grafana - Beautiful metric & analytic dashboards.
• Graphene - Realtime dashboard & graphing toolkit based on D3 and Backbone.
• Tessera - Dashboard front-end for graphite.

Metrics Frameworks

• Dropwizard - Dropwizard is a Java framework for developing ops-friendly, high-performance, RESTful web services.
• Go-metrics - Go port of codehale's metrics library.
• Metrics - Node.js port of codahale's metrics library.
• Stagemonitor - Open source solution to application performance monitoring for java server applications.
• Spring Boot Actuator - Sub-project of Spring Boot that provides endpoints allow you to monitor and interact with your application: health, metrics, etc.

Real World Dashboards

• Gitlab - Gitlab monitor dashboard: CI, HAProxy, Postgres, Redis, etc.
• Percona - Percona Monitoring and Management: MongoDB, MySQL, Prometheus, etc.

Conferences

• GrafanaCon - Annual event where the entire Grafana team along with hundreds of monitoring and data aficionados from across the Grafana ecosystem gather to discuss monitoring.

Videos
