DrupalCon Baltimore 2017: The future of Monitoring is now with Sensu
About this talk
This talk covers the power and flexibility of Sensu, a modern monitoring tool designed for cloud architectures and compatible with configuration management systems. The speaker discusses the architecture of Sensu and how it alleviates the challenges faced by traditional monitoring solutions like Nagios. Attendees will learn to write simple plugins for monitoring their services and how to integrate Sensu with graphing services such as Graphite, InfluxDB, and Grafana for effective visualization of metrics. The session will provide PHP plugin examples tailored for Drupal developers and demonstrate the use of the check module to monitor Drupal instances, complete with a working Vagrant project for streamlined setup and evaluation.
