Pingdom Integration

Pingdom lets you monitor the uptime and performance of your website and server. This integration installs and configures Telegraf to send Pingdom 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 are sections of a dashboard displaying Pingdom metrics:
