Cacti: Service Monitoring Server on Ubuntu 20.04

Tidal Media Inc. provides you with a web-based network monitoring and graphing tool designed as a front-end application for the open-source, industry-standard data logging tool RRDtool. The offer has been carefully pre-configured for seamless performance in Azure Cloud and deploys instantaneously.

Cacti allows a user to poll services at predetermined intervals and graph the resulting data. It is generally used to graph time-series data of metrics such as CPU load and network bandwidth utilization. A common usage is to monitor network traffic by polling a network switch or router interface via Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

Features:

• Supports SNMP, ICMP, TCP and UDP Availability Checking
• Includes Built-In Support for meta attributes such as Site, Location, and External ID for asset tracking
• Provides Automatic Graph and Data Source creation control through Automation and Discovery
• Graph Items can leverage AVERAGE, MIN, MAX and LAST

The front end can handle multiple users, each with its own graph sets, so it is sometimes used by web hosting providers (especially dedicated servers, virtual private servers, and colocation providers) to display bandwidth statistics for their customers.

Cacti can be used to configure the data collection itself, allowing certain setups to be monitored without any manual configuration of RRDtool. It can be extended to monitor any source via shell scripts and executables.

Deliver to your Azure Cloud a complete network graphing solution designed to harness the power of RRDTool's data storage and graphing functionality.
