Ingest events and metrics
The first step in the data pipeline is to ingest metrics and events of interest from the external monitoring tools and other data sources in your infrastructure. The Data Ingestion Reference describes each supported integration in detail.
Moogsoft Cloud includes the following integrations:
The Moogsoft Collector collects server, Docker, and other metrics on Linux servers. You can deploy collectors on nodes throughout your physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructure.
The Collector includes an extensible framework that supports data collection from additional services and platforms.
An Amazon CloudWatch integration for ingesting cloud metrics.
A Create Your Own Integration feature that lets you specify how to map metric and event fields from external sources in the Moogsoft UI.
A Metrics API for ingesting time series metrics from external monitors.
An Events API for ingesting data from external tools such as AppDynamics and New Relic.
The metric and events schemas are both highly generic and flexible. Each schema has a small set of required data fields and support for additional fields.
