I'm not sure they're comparable. I did the same evaluation, one of the many criteria that I had is a system that can handle many, many data points from many hosts (at the peak we had 50 production machines) and provide robust flexible queries over them; with almost 0 maintenance/configuration.
Metrics are created dynamically, the Graphite database is optimized for this problem (more optimized than RRD - although it seems that recent versions of RRD closed the gap), and it can take a beating in terms of scale.
A single Graphite instance does this effortlessly.

- mattyb 15y agoGraphite is not a monitoring tool. It stores time series data and graphs it. You can write a monitoring system that queries Graphite, and send notifications from there. Graphite can give you the raw data that backs the graphs: http://graphite.readthedocs.org/en/latest/url-api.html#rawdata http://graphite.readthedocs.org/en/latest/url-api.html#rawda...
