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).

Telegraf

gollark: Any opinions on my theory of what's going on with the pricing? Basically, I said that if extra dragons are introduced to the total but not the rest of the system (golds, whatever else), then rarer stuff's ratios will be affected more than common stuff, so the gold pricing goes crazy and nebulae stay the same.
gollark: 3.
gollark: My theory of what's up, copied from the forum thread:If many new eggs are being introduced to the system, then that will most affect the stuff which is rarest, by making it rarer by comparison, but commons will stay the same. As for why it happened now? Weekly updates, possibly.Example:Imagine there are 200 dragons, 5 of which are golds.The ratio of golds to total dragons is now 5:200 = 1:40. If the target ratio is 1:50 then prices will be higher to compensate.Now imagine there are an extra 200 dragons added, none of which are golds.The ratio would then be 5:400 = 1:80. Then, assuming the same target, prices will drop.This is of course simplified, and the ratios may not work like this, but this matches observed behavior pretty well.
gollark: That why was rhetorical.
gollark: As I said on the forums:```That makes sense. If many new eggs are being introduced to the system, then that will most affect the stuff which is rarest, by making it rarer by comparison, but commons will stay the same. As for why it happened now? Weekly updates, possibly.```
