Build Your Own Telegraf Plugin

Abstract: Telegraf is a plugin-driven server agent for collecting & reporting metrics, and there are many plugins already written to source data from a variety of services and systems. However, there may be instances where you need to write your own plugin to source data from your particular systems. In this session, Anais will provide you with the steps on how to write your own Telegraf plugin. This will require an understanding of the Go programming language.

InfluxDB and the Linux eBPF

Abstract: Since the release of the Linux kernel 4.x series, a lot of enhancements have reached mainline to the eBPF ecosystem giving us the capability to do a lot more than just network stuff. The purpose of this talk is to provide an initial understanding on what eBPF programs are and how to hook the output of eBPF programs to InfluxDB in order to answer targeted questions at the cluster level and very specific fine-grained situations happening in our programs.

InfluxQL & TICKscript

Abstract: InfluxQL is a powerful query language for InfluxDB, and the TICKScript is a domain-specific language used by Kapacitor to define tasks involving the extraction, transformation and loading of data and also involving the tracking of arbitrary changes and detection of events within data. The combination of these two can make your monitoring apps powerful. During this session, InfluxData Engineer Michael DeSa will share best practices for using these powerful tools.
