How to consume Graylog data with Quix
The Graylog Telegraf plugin gathers metrics from Graylog log management servers, a centralized platform that collects, indexes, and analyzes log messages from various IT systems and applications to help with troubleshooting, security, and compliance
Quix is the Python stream processor, and it serves the following purposes:
- Ingest messages from Graylog
- Process received messages
- Send transformed data to destination systems (via Quix integrations) so it can be operationalized
- Use data received from Graylog to power real-time capabilities
Integration with Graylog is achieved via Telegraf using the Quix Telegraf output plugin. This plugin allows Telegraf to collect data from Graylog and forward it to Quix for real-time processing, analysis, and integration with downstream systems.
