NGINX Plus Integration

NGINX Plus is a web server, load balancer and content cache built on top of open source NGINX.

This integration installs and configures Telegraf to send NGINX Plus server metrics into Wavefront. Telegraf is a light-weight server process capable of collecting, processing, aggregating, and sending metrics to a Wavefront proxy.

In addition to setting up the metrics flow, this integration also installs a dashboard. Here’s a preview of some charts in the NGINX Plus dashboard.
