The other evening I wrote a logstash config to read and process detail files, which seems to work well. I'm planning to tidy it up and bundle it with a kibana dashboard and elasticsearch mapping for inclusion.
Similar functionality to splunk, though i'm not sure splunk can output graphs, and it's not free of course.
Splunk can do graphs. It's also IME hideously expensive for any sort of production traffic.
The logstash config will then allow use of the graphite output of course, rather than feeding into elasticsearch.
That said, an rlm_graphite might be useful for those who want to purely make graphs, without the cool log processing side that elasticsearch gives you as well.
It would also be considerably faster. Don't suppose you want to contribute that config? :)
Yes, I'm doing it for contribution. Just needs tidying up first; shouldn't take long. Cheers Matthew -- Matthew Newton, Ph.D. <mcn4@le.ac.uk> Systems Specialist, Infrastructure Services, I.T.
