Hi there,
I have a script running on some DNS servers to calculate TPS, Success Rate and other Performance Counters.
My challenge is to get a Linux Data Visualization Software to collect these performance logs and produce a visualization that will be appealing to Business peeps. A sample of the logs is given below:
Tue Aug 19 13:00:11 WAT 2014 DNS query per second for 5 mins time range: 15389
Tue Aug 19 13:05:11 WAT 2014 DNS query per second for 5 mins time range: 15516
Tue Aug 19 13:10:11 WAT 2014 DNS query per second for 5 mins time range: 15269
Tue Aug 19 13:15:11 WAT 2014 DNS query per second for 5 mins time range: 15084
Tue Aug 19 13:20:11 WAT 2014 DNS query per second for 5 mins time range: 15068
Tue Aug 19 13:25:12 WAT 2014 DNS query per second for 5 mins time range: 15212
Tue Aug 19 13:30:12 WAT 2014 DNS query per second for 5 mins time range: 15137
Tue Aug 19 13:35:11 WAT 2014 DNS query per second for 5 mins time range: 15378
Tue Aug 19 13:40:12 WAT 2014 DNS query per second for 5 mins time range: 15250
Tue Aug 19 13:45:11 WAT 2014 DNS query per second for 5 mins time range: 15291
I know I can use tools like Centreon, Nagios, Cacti etc... But there are some nodes that due to restrictions, am only limited to be able to copy files from them, other access is restricted.
Can someone suggest an open source Data Visualization Software or Log Management or Business Intelligence that can work with my kind of Log files.
I have checked FLUENTD, ELK, GrayLog but it seems these are suited to some particular form of log like syslog.
I will appreciate any input.
