Input and output integration overview
This input plugin gathers metrics from Mesos.
The Sumo Logic plugin is designed to facilitate the sending of metrics from Telegraf to Sumo Logic’s HTTP Source. By utilizing this plugin, users can analyze their metric data in the Sumo Logic platform, leveraging various output data formats.
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.
Sumo Logic
This plugin facilitates the transmission of metrics to Sumo Logic’s HTTP Source, employing specified data formats for HTTP messages. Telegraf, which must be version 1.16.0 or higher, can send metrics encoded in several formats, including graphite
, carbon2
, and prometheus
. These formats correspond to different content types recognized by Sumo Logic, ensuring that the metrics are correctly interpreted for analysis. Integration with Sumo Logic allows users to leverage a comprehensive analytics platform, enabling rich visualizations and insights from their metric data. The plugin provides configuration options such as setting URLs for the HTTP Metrics Source, choosing the data format, and specifying additional parameters like timeout and request size, which enhance flexibility and control in data monitoring workflows.
Configuration
Mesos
[[inputs.mesos]]
## Timeout, in ms.
timeout = 100
## A list of Mesos masters.
masters = ["http://localhost:5050"]
## Master metrics groups to be collected, by default, all enabled.
master_collections = [
"resources",
"master",
"system",
"agents",
"frameworks",
"framework_offers",
"tasks",
"messages",
"evqueue",
"registrar",
"allocator",
]
## A list of Mesos slaves, default is []
# slaves = []
## Slave metrics groups to be collected, by default, all enabled.
# slave_collections = [
# "resources",
# "agent",
# "system",
# "executors",
# "tasks",
# "messages",
# ]
## Optional TLS Config
# tls_ca = "/etc/telegraf/ca.pem"
# tls_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
# tls_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
## Use TLS but skip chain & host verification
# insecure_skip_verify = false
Sumo Logic
[[outputs.sumologic]]
## Unique URL generated for your HTTP Metrics Source.
## This is the address to send metrics to.
# url = "https://events.sumologic.net/receiver/v1/http/"
## Data format to be used for sending metrics.
## This will set the "Content-Type" header accordingly.
## Currently supported formats:
## * graphite - for Content-Type of application/vnd.sumologic.graphite
## * carbon2 - for Content-Type of application/vnd.sumologic.carbon2
## * prometheus - for Content-Type of application/vnd.sumologic.prometheus
##

## https://help.sumologic.com/03Send-Data/Sources/02Sources-for-Hosted-Collectors/HTTP-Source/Upload-Metrics-to-an-HTTP-Source#content-type-headers-for-metrics
##
## NOTE:
## When unset, telegraf will by default use the influx serializer which is currently unsupported
## in HTTP Source.
data_format = "carbon2"
## Timeout used for HTTP request
# timeout = "5s"
## Max HTTP request body size in bytes before compression (if applied).
## By default 1MB is recommended.
## NOTE:
## Bear in mind that in some serializer a metric even though serialized to multiple
## lines cannot be split any further so setting this very low might not work
## as expected.
# max_request_body_size = 1000000
## Additional, Sumo specific options.

# source_host = ""
## Desired source category.

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.
Sumo Logic
-
Real-Time System Monitoring Dashboard: Utilize the Sumo Logic plugin to continuously feed performance metrics from your servers into a Sumo Logic dashboard. This setup allows tech teams to visualize system health and load in real-time, enabling quicker identification of any performance bottlenecks or system failures through detailed graphs and metrics.
-
Automated Alerting System: Configure the plugin to send metrics that trigger alerts in Sumo Logic for specific thresholds such as CPU usage or memory consumption. By setting up automated alerts, teams can proactively address issues before they escalate into critical failures, significantly improving response times and overall system reliability.
-
Cross-System Metrics Aggregation: Integrate multiple Telegraf instances across different environments (development, testing, production) and funnel all metrics to a central Sumo Logic instance using this plugin. This aggregation enables comprehensive analysis across environments, facilitating better monitoring and informed decision-making across the software development lifecycle.
-
Custom Metrics with Dimensions Tracking: Use the Sumo Logic plugin to send customized metrics that include dimensions identifying various aspects of your infrastructure (e.g., environment, service type). This granular tracking allows for more tailored analytics, enabling your team to dissect performance across different application layers or business functions.
