Graphite collects, stores, and displays time-series data in real time.
The tool has three main components:
- Carbon - a Twisted daemon that listens for time-series data
- Whisper - a simple database library for storing time-series data (similar in design to RRD)[2]
- Graphite webapp - A Django webapp that renders graphs on-demand using Cairo library.
Graphite is used in production by companies such as Ford Motor Company, Booking.com, GitHub, Etsy, The Washington Post and Electronic Arts.[4]
