TICK stack

The TICK stack is a collection of associated technologies that consists of Telegraf, InfluxDB, Chronograf and Kapacitor. They combine to deliver a platform for storing, capturing, monitoring and visualizing data that is in time series.

The TICK stack consists of the following technologies:

  • #Telegraf – collection of tie sequential data from a range of sources including IoT devices.
  • #InfluxDB – high performance and efficient database store for handling high volumes of time-series data.
  • #Chronograf – real-time visualization of InfluxDB data.
  • #Kapacitor – monitoring and alerting based on views of InfluxDB data and anomalies contained within those views.
Note: These components do not have to be used altogether. Also they can be replaced with other preferred tools (e.g. Grafana instead of Chronograf) or not used at all (e.g. Kapacitor).

gollark: YET.
gollark: You know someone who *also might have* gotten it then.
gollark: Yes, but like I said COVID-19 is very popular right now and you know someone who got it.
