MonitorOne
A Graphite-, CollectD-, StatsD- based monitoring system framework for deployed applications and infrastructure.
NB. YOU MUST graphite-manage syncdb everytime you upload the local_settings.py file. Failure to do so will BREAK Django/Graphite
Terraform
From the terraform sub-directory of this project
you can instantiate a StageOne infrastructure with:
~:$ terraform apply
Ansible
From within the ansible sub-directory of this project
you may install all required roles with:
~:$ ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml
Serverspec
Test that a host in the system is provisioned as expected:
~:$ bundle exec rake spec:monitor1.ubxd.io
TODO:
1.) Track time of deploys, and overlay onto graphs for Cluster Dashboard. See https://codeascraft.com/2010/12/08/track-every-release/
FOOTNOTES:
1. Graphite Manage Syncdb
Right now, the automation is incomplete due to the requirement for performing
graphite-manage syncdb interactively. syncdb is effectively the Django utility
for providing Schema management a la Rails' "migrations".
This can be automated, by seeding the action with a JSON file, and calling it with the --no-input flag.
