Introduction to Sensu

Introduction to Sensu

Sensu is a monitoring framework.

Sensu Server

The Sensu server schedules and publishes check execution requests to client subscriptions (via a Publish/Subscribe model), and provides a scalable event processing platform for processing check results and monitoring events.

Sensu Clients 

Sensu clients are monitoring agents, which are installed and run on every system (e.g. server, container, etc) that needs to be monitored. The client is responsible for registering the system with Sensu.

Sensu check

Sensu checks are commands executed by the Sensu client which monitor a condition (e.g. is Nginx running?) or collect measurements (e.g. how much disk space do I have left?).

Sensu named aggregate

Sensu named aggregates are collections of check results.

Sensu events

A Sensu Event is created every time a check result is processed by the Sensu server.

Sensu Silencing

Silencing is used to prevent handlers from being triggered based on the check name present in a check result.

Sensu Filters

Sensu Filters (also called Event Filters) allows you to filter events destined for one or more event Handlers

Sensu Mutator

Sensu mutators are executable scripts or other programs that modify event data for Sensu event handlers

Sensu Handler

Sensu event handlers are actions executed by the Sensu server on events, such as sending an email alert, creating or resolving an incident.

Sensu Plugins

Sensu plugins provide executable scripts or other programs that can be used as Sensu checks (i.e. to monitor server resources, services, and application health, or collect & analyze metrics), Sensu handlers (i.e. to send notifications or perform other actions based on Sensu events), or Sensu mutators (i.e. to modify event data prior to handling)

Sensu Data Store

Sensu services use a data store (Redis) to persist in monitoring data, including the Sensu client registry, check results, check execution history, and current event data.

Sensu Transport

Sensu services use a message bus (e.g. RabbitMQ) for communication. This message bus communication is provided by the Sensu Transport

Average

Average In this post, We will learn about average.  Average of any collection of data is the sum of data divide by number of data. Average = (Sum of observations /  Number of observations) Please write comments if you find anything incorrect, or you want to share more information about the topic discussed above.  problems The arithmetic mean of x, y and z is 80, and that of x, y, z, u and v is 75, where u=(x+y)/2 and v=(y+z)/2. If x ≥ z, then the minimum possible value of x is (CAT 2018) As specified in the question mean of x and y and z is 80 x+y+z=3*80 mean of x, y, z,u,v is 75 x+y+z+u+v=75*5 2u=x+y 2v=y+z x+y+z+((x+y+y+z)/2)=75*5 y+3(x+y+z)=75*10 y=750-720 y=30 since x+y+z=240 y=30 so x+z=210 since x>=z so minimum value of x=210/2 = 105 Problem2: In first 5 inings sehwag has scored at average of 40. In sixth ining He had scored 52 what is His average after 6th ining. one simple approach is getting total score divided by no of inin...

Set Theory

Set Theory Set Theory is a branch of mathematics in which we study about sets and their properties. Georg Cantor (1845-1918), a German mathematician, initiated the concept ‘Theory of sets’ or ‘Set Theory’. He was working on “ Problems on Trigonometric Series ” when he encountered something that had become the most fundamental thing in mathematics. Set theory is the fundamental theory in mathematics. Without sets, it is not possible to explain relations, functions, sequences, probability, geometry etc. Apart from this, Cantor also conceptualized that some of the infinities are countable and others are uncountable. He introduced the fact that the uncountable infinite set of real numbers is larger than the countable infinite set of integers. This is known as Cantor’s diagonal argument. Let us now go ahead and learn the meaning of sets in maths. Sets: To understand sets, consider a practical scenario. While going to school from home, Nivy decided to note down the ...

Conditional Statements in C

Conditional Statements In c programming language, decision making is used to specify the order in which statements are executed. In C we use conditional statements to achieve this. There can be any type of control structures. In our daily life, these kinds of control structures generally achieve or used in our decision-making process. Control Structures types. If then            If I exercise daily then I will be fit If else             If today rains then I will play FIFA else I will not play FIFA. else if      In programming, we use a conditional statement to make decisions in the same way as in real life. If Statement Example if the expression it true evaluate the statement. if (expession) { statement } C example. You have given a number, check if the number is positive print Positive on the terminal. if (number > 0) { printf("Positive"); } ...
