How to consume Nginx Plus data with Quix
The Nginx Plus Telegraf plugin gathers metrics from Nginx Plus, monitoring advanced features of the commercial version including real-time activity monitoring, advanced load balancing, and caching efficiency
Quix is the Python stream processor, and it serves the following purposes:
- Ingest messages from Nginx Plus
- Process received messages
- Send transformed data to destination systems (via Quix integrations) so it can be operationalized
- Use data received from Nginx Plus to power real-time capabilities
Integration with Nginx Plus is achieved via Telegraf using the Quix Telegraf output plugin. This plugin allows Telegraf to collect data from Nginx Plus and forward it to Quix for real-time processing, analysis, and integration with downstream systems.
