So, on the first day, I would like to give you a rough overview of blackbird. blackbird is ** Monitoring Agent Daemon **. For now, it works to get various metrics of AWS components such as Nginx, MySQL, Apache, Memcached, Redis, Elastic Load Blancing, RDS, ElastiCache and send them to Zabbix Server. Will do it.
Honestly, I think it's possible to use Zabbix Agent ??, but as a common problem when monitoring middleware with Zabbix, when you get the value using ʻuser_scripts, 1 value per key So, if you talk about wanting to get SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS;, you want to say how many times you should hit SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS;` ...
So we decided to create a Daemon that talks about Zabbix Sender protocol and let it send data.
Please refer to here or here for detailed installation method.
I think that you can understand that blackbird is something that seems to be reachable (δ´ω ｀), so I can also introduce you that you can take this, [blackbird Advent Calendar 2014](http: http: (/ qiita.com/advent-calendar/2014/blackbird), what kind of value can be obtained with various plugins and what kind of graph can be created on Zabbix side, I had a hard time when creating the plugin, so if you want to do something similar, click here I'm thinking of trying to talk about it. I talked lightly today, but from tomorrow I will talk a little deeper.
Then, touch Ashita no Hito with a baton!
