How to consume Riak data with Quix
The Riak Telegraf plugin collects metrics from Riak distributed database, monitoring node status, ring health, and operation throughput for this fault-tolerant NoSQL datastore
Quix is the Python stream processor, and it serves the following purposes:
- Ingest messages from Riak
- Process received messages
- Send transformed data to destination systems (via Quix integrations) so it can be operationalized
- Use data received from Riak to power real-time capabilities
Integration with Riak is achieved via Telegraf using the Quix Telegraf output plugin. This plugin allows Telegraf to collect data from Riak and forward it to Quix for real-time processing, analysis, and integration with downstream systems.
