Metricbeat is a lightweight shipper that you can install on your servers to
|
|
periodically collect metrics from the operating system and from services running
|
|
on the server. Metricbeat takes the metrics and statistics that it collects and
|
|
ships them to the output that you specify, such as Elasticsearch or Logstash.
|
|
|
|
Metricbeat helps you monitor your servers by collecting metrics from the system
|
|
and services running on the server, such as:
|
|
|
|
* <<metricbeat-module-apache,Apache>>
|
|
* <<metricbeat-module-haproxy,HAProxy>>
|
|
* <<metricbeat-module-mongodb,MongoDB>>
|
|
* <<metricbeat-module-mysql,MySQL>>
|
|
* <<metricbeat-module-nginx,Nginx>>
|
|
* <<metricbeat-module-postgresql,PostgreSQL>>
|
|
* <<metricbeat-module-redis,Redis>>
|
|
* <<metricbeat-module-system,System>>
|
|
* <<metricbeat-module-zookeeper,Zookeeper>>
|
|
|
|
See <<metricbeat-modules>> for the complete list of supported services.
|
|
|
|
Metricbeat can insert the collected metrics directly into Elasticsearch
|
|
or send them to Logstash, Redis, or Kafka.
