Easy App Metrics
summary
Shows concrete wins and tools: Graphana dashboards plus Graphite or InfluxDB, statsd transport, and Logstash-derived metrics. Recommends running one statsd per host to avoid slowing apps, using Graphite API to skip painful installs, and exploiting InfluxDB tags for flexible queries. Gives numbers: metrics can be very cheap (example: 20MB store for 10 years), suggests out‑of‑band processing to avoid latency, and demonstrates Django AB metrics as an abstraction that swaps Mixpanel Redis or DB backends without retooling.
