carbon-clickhouse

Graphite metrics receiver with ClickHouse as storage

Production status

Last releases are stable and ready for production use

Build

# build binary
git clone https://github.com/lomik/carbon-clickhouse.git
cd carbon-clickhouse
make submodules
make

ClickHouse configuration

1. Add graphite_rollup section to config.xml. Sample here. You can use carbon-schema-to-clickhouse for generate rollup xml from graphite storage-schemas.conf.

2. Create tables

CREATE TABLE graphite ( 
  Path String,  
  Value Float64,  
  Time UInt32,  
  Date Date,  
  Timestamp UInt32
) ENGINE = GraphiteMergeTree(Date, (Path, Time), 8192, 'graphite_rollup');
 
-- optional table for faster metric search
CREATE TABLE graphite_tree (
  Date Date,
  Level UInt32,
  Path String,
  Deleted UInt8,
  Version UInt32
) ENGINE = ReplacingMergeTree(Date, (Level, Path), 8192, Version);

GraphiteMergeTree documentation

You can create Replicated tables. See ClickHouse documentation
