        Thats the one thanks!

        Unless perhaps you have a different suggestion for dash boarding other than Graphite and Grafana

          Grafana is pretty awesome. Let me ping the Grafan expert to see if he can help you out here.

                I'm here.

                Don't use Graphite. It scales poorly, is a pain in the ass to deal with via all the carbon options, etc.

                Use cassabon as your carbon listener and storage: https://github.com/jeffpierce/cassabon
                Use graphite-api with the cyanite-reader plugin to handle Grafana's requests: https://github.com/brutasse/graphite-api
                Use Grafana to render your graphs/dashboards: http://grafana.org/

                    For those wondering.... @Technomancer is the author of Cassabon.

                      I gave a talk about the stats setup I'm talking about here (just replace mentions of Cyanite with Cassabon): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yErya52xTw

                      Slide deck is at https://speakerdeck.com/technomancer/devops-days-2015-tel-aviv-real-time-metrics-and-distributed-monitoring.

                        @Technomancer a walkthrough on building a Grafana / Cassabon system on CentOS 7 would be pretty sweet. A lot of people here would love to get that set up. Just a simple single system setup is all that is really needed. Most everyone, not all but most, are in small environments so a single VM handling all of this would be the common use case.

                              Agreed!

                              My vote would currently be Ubuntu (simply because thats where I'm currently focusing, CentOS later)

                              But thanks! @Technomancer

                                Hey!

                                So I'm currently trying to set up Worldping but I'm having troubles setting up the API key.

                                Was wondering if you could lend a hand.

                                I continuously see

                                curl -H "Authorization: Bearer
                                api key" http://worldping-api.raintank.io/api/dashboards/db/mydash

                                like this and similar.

                                I'm also reading that I can just authenticate by username

                                None of this is working, could you point me in the right direction.

                                Thanks
