We're interested in getting data from our grid into Grafana for somewhat more advanced (/prettier ;) ) visualization. Has anyone else gone down this road either with a combination of the Postgres/Cassandra DBs directly or via the API?

 

Since 4.0, pScheduler has a raft of archiver plugins that allow sending the results of measurements directly to systems other than Esmond (and Esmond, too) using various methods.  Documentation for that is at https://docs.perfsonar.net/pscheduler_ref_archivers.html ; the one you’ll probably be interested in is the HTTP archiver since most systems can take HTTP POSTs.

 

Don’t invest a lot of time in Esmond (which is PostgreSQL and Cassandra underneath); it’s going away in the 5.0 release.  There will be backward-compatibility software to query its replacement as if it were Esmond, but that won’t remain forever, either.
