Hi all Kamailio developers,
I would like to propose a new module that I've written recently, that
provide native integration with statsd[0]/graphite[1].
The module provides the ability to send information to statsd (You can
use InfluxDB too) with different kind of information. I wrote small
post in my blog[2] and doc are in the repo [3].
The typical scenario for this module is for monitoring features into
kamailio. For example:
- Monitor how long we need to reply a new request.
- Store how many errors send our providers.
- Check how long take one sqlquery.
- Check how many times are using the new feature
Nowadays we[4]are using kamailio-statsd and we track in simple
dashboard[5][6] all information that we get from kamailio, and other
software (Asterisk, Django Backend, Diamond[7]) and we have in simple
click all the information that we want.
The module doesn't have any special deps, it's a simple socket that
connect to Graphite. For timing function I'm using avp to set
init_time.
I hope that this contribution could be useful for the community and I
look forward to hearing your feedback, thoughts, suggestions.
Best regards,
Eloy Coto.
