Graphite

Time-series metrics storage and graphing system that has been a foundational building block of monitoring stacks for over a decade.

Overview

Graphite stores numeric time-series data and renders it as graphs through a simple, well-established storage format and query API that many other monitoring tools - including Grafana - were originally built to consume. It focuses purely on storing and rendering time series rather than collection or alerting.

Graphite is a fit for teams maintaining older monitoring stacks built around it, or who want a simple, proven metrics store, distinct from Prometheus's pull-based, label-oriented model already in this catalog.
