OpenTSDB with HTTP
Netdata can easily communicate with OpenTSDB using HTTP API. To enable this channel, set the following options in your
netdata.conf
:
[backend]
type = opentsdb:http
destination = localhost:4242
In this example, OpenTSDB is running with its default port, which is 4242
. If you run OpenTSDB on a different port,
change the destination = localhost:4242
line accordingly.
HTTPS
As of v1.16.0, Netdata can send metrics to OpenTSDB using TLS/SSL. Unfortunately, OpenTDSB does not support encrypted connections, so you will have to configure a reverse proxy to enable HTTPS communication between Netdata and OpenTSBD. You can set up a reverse proxy with Nginx.
After your proxy is configured, make the following changes to netdata.conf
:
[backend]
type = opentsdb:https
destination = localhost:8082
In this example, we used the port 8082
for our reverse proxy. If your reverse proxy listens on a different port,
change the destination = localhost:8082
line accordingly.
