monitoring solutions for openresty servers?

christopherwhitten

I need some transparency with my openresty server pools to monitor the basics (activity, load, active connections, etc). It needs to be lightweight and it must not give up any server performance. Does anything exist?

May be ngxtop?

The lowest impact tools (for linux at least) are the ones that come with the OS: sar, netstat, htop, nicstat, perf etc. (assuming you're running on linux).

I'm aware of the system-level monitoring tools, I'm looking for more of a software solution without a presentation layer (so I can build and surface the data as I choose). Looking for other openresty folks who have tackled the same problem. I need to aggregate and present data across clusters of openresty servers.

This isn't going to give you precise point-in-time data like active socket connections, but using nginx access logs + a robust log management tool like Splunk (or Elasticsearch + Logstash + Kibana) would probably be able to give you a very good estimate of what kind of traffic and load you're seeing across many servers. Splunk also has lots of options for aggregation, and generating graphs and statistics.

Ganglia, collectd can solve the low cost data aggregating part. In the past I've tailed Nginx logs and wrote cache hit rates etc to ganglia or stated and graphite. Graphite is a nice way to mung data from multiple instances and sources
