More chart options like ohlc candlesticks #1077

Open AndiMacTen opened 4 years ago

The grafana service graphs and dashboards are awesome but also a bit limited. There are methods to print more information onto less space. In our case ohlc candlestick charts could be useful e.g. to plot history of temperature data- Someone wrote a grafana plugin https://github.com/ilgizar/ilgizar-candlestick-panel Could it be possible to bring something like into openITCOCKPIT?

Hi @AndiMacTen, at the moment, this is only possible by using an external Grafana installation: https://docs.it-novum.com/display/ODE/Graphing+Backend#GraphingBackend-UseexternalGraphiteandGrafanaServer(expert)

You can also only install an external Grafana server, and point it to the openITCOCKPIT Graphite Web API through an Nginx reverse proxy.

I added this to the internal Backlog as ITC-2319 but I can't promise that this will ever get implemented.

In case this is an urgent issue for you please feel free to contact Christoph Wess (Christoph.Wess@it-novum.com) to request a quote or (the site is in german at the moment): https://it-novum.com/kampagne/remote-unterstuetzung-fuer-ihren-laufenden-itsm-betrieb/

Hi @nook24 , thank you very much for your reply. No, this case is not an urgent matter. Just a nice to have.

Another nice to have which I would like to bring in for consideration is to have stacked line charts. My use-case for stacked lines would be to draw the total size of a storage raid group. Further metrics in the same chart would be the used capacity of the data volumes containing in this specific raid group. Something like this Stacked Lines maybe something for your internal Backlog ;-)

With the next release of openITCOCKPIT, we will add more chart options to the Grafana Editor:

It's now also possible to stack series.

openITCOCKPIT Grafana editor: grafik

Resulting Grafana dashboard: grafik

It turns out that our metrics are not very compatible with the candlestick chart, so this is not available through the editor. How ever, it is now part of Grafana itself and can be used via the Grafana GUI directly.
