Data collection

Collection of data in the form of events and logs in the Monq product is carried out by using Monq Data Streams and Agents.

There are two methods for collecting data:

• push - method means sending data to Monq via REST HTTP API (Data Streams API). Examples of integrations implemented via the push method:
  • Prometheus (Alertmanager)
  • Ntopng
  • Fluentd
  • Nagios Core
• pull - method involves connecting and extracting data from information systems using Monq Agents. Ready-made configuration templates and plugins for them can be used. It is also possible to write your own Tasks and Handlers. Examples of integrations implemented via the pull method:
  • Zabbix
  • SCOM
  • Nagios XI
  • vCenter
