Telegraf Integration Data

08/24/2020 Contributors Download PDF of this page

The Cloud Insights Telegraf data collectors are powerful tools for gathering source-reported metrics from your data sources.

Cloud Insights provides different transform options for metrics collected using Telegraf. When adding these metrics to a widget, you are presented with a drop-down giving the transform choices:

None: Data is displayed as is, with no manipulation.
Rate: Current value divided by the time range since the previous observation.
Cumulative: The accumulation of the sum of previous values and the current value.
Delta: The difference between the previous observation value and the current value.
Delta rate: Delta value divided by the time range since the previous observation.
Cumulative Rate: Cumulative value divided by the time range since the previous observation.
