Input and output integration overview
This input plugin gathers metrics from Mesos.
This plugin sends Telegraf metrics directly to Grafana’s Mimir database using HTTP, providing scalable and efficient long-term storage and analysis for Prometheus-compatible metrics.
Integration details
Mesos
The Mesos plugin for Telegraf is designed to collect and report metrics from Apache Mesos clusters, which is essential for monitoring and observability in container orchestration and resource management. Mesos, known for its scalability and ability to manage diverse workloads, generates various metrics about resource usage, tasks, frameworks, and overall system performance. By utilizing this plugin, users can track the health and efficiency of their Mesos clusters, gather insights into resource distribution, and ensure that applications receive the necessary resources in a timely manner. The configuration allows users to specify the relevant Mesos master’s details, along with the desired metric groups to collect, making it adaptable to different deployments and monitoring needs. Overall, this plugin integrates seamlessly within the Telegraf collection pipeline, supporting detailed observability for cloud-native environments.
Mimir
Grafana Mimir supports the Prometheus Remote Write protocol, enabling Telegraf collected metrics to be efficiently ingested into Mimir clusters for large-scale, long-term storage. This integration leverages Prometheus’s well-established standards, allowing users to combine Telegraf’s extensive data collection capabilities with Mimir’s advanced features, such as query federation, multi-tenancy, high availability, and cost-efficient storage. Grafana Mimir’s architecture is optimized for handling high volumes of metric data and delivering fast query responses, making it ideal for complex monitoring environments and distributed systems.

Input and output integration examples
Mesos
-
Resource Utilization Monitoring: Use the Mesos plugin to continually monitor CPU, memory, and disk usage across your Mesos cluster. For a rapidly scaling application, tracking these metrics helps ensure that resources are dynamically allocated according to workloads, preventing bottlenecks and optimizing performance.
-
Framework Performance Analysis: Integrate this plugin to measure the performance of different frameworks running on Mesos. By comparing active frameworks and their task success rates, you can identify which frameworks provide the best resource efficiency or may require optimization.
-
Alerts for System Health: Set up alerts based on metrics collected by the Mesos plugin to notify engineering teams when resource utilization exceeds key thresholds or when specific tasks fail. This allows for proactive intervention and maintenance before critical failures occur.
-
Capacity Planning: Utilize gathered metrics to analyze historical resource usage patterns to assist in capacity planning. By understanding peak loads and resource utilization trends, teams can make informed decisions on scaling infrastructure and deploying additional resources as needed.
Mimir
-
Enterprise-Scale Kubernetes Monitoring: Integrate Telegraf with Grafana Mimir to stream metrics from Kubernetes clusters at enterprise scale. This enables comprehensive visibility, improved resource allocation, and proactive troubleshooting across hundreds of clusters, leveraging Mimir’s horizontal scalability and high availability.
-
Multi-tenant SaaS Application Observability: Use this plugin to centralize metrics from diverse SaaS tenants into Grafana Mimir, enabling tenant isolation and accurate billing based on resource usage. This approach provides reliable observability, efficient cost management, and secure multi-tenancy support.
-
Global Edge Network Performance Tracking: Stream latency and availability metrics from globally distributed edge servers into Grafana Mimir. Organizations can quickly identify performance degradation or outages, leveraging Mimir’s fast querying capabilities to ensure optimal service reliability and user experience.
-
Real-Time Analytics for High-Volume Microservices: Implement Telegraf metrics collection in high-volume microservices architectures, feeding data into Grafana Mimir for real-time analytics and anomaly detection. Mimir’s powerful querying enables teams to detect anomalies and quickly respond, maintaining high service availability and performance.
