I'm considering the use of InfluxDB to store thousands of measurements per second from routers in a network. Each measurement is lightweight (between 10-20 bytes). Now, I'm wondering what is the best strategy: InfluxDB + Zabbix? Or Telegraf? Or another alternative?
1) InfluxDB + Zabbix: according to
https://www.zabbix.com/integrations/influxdb
there is a possible integration. However, it seems the integration involves taking data that was collected in a Zabbix database and moving it to an InfluxDB to take advantage of InfuxDB using much less storage. So they meant it to be for archiving large amounts of data.
However, we believe Zabbix itself is too slow, no? The integration above would not work for online data collection, right? We need fast storage, and we do not want Zabbix to be a bottleneck. Are there known benchmarks and recommendations about Zabbix + InfluxDB integration, for online collection + storage?
2) InfluxDB + Telegraf: according to
https://www.influxdata.com/blog/monitoring-openwrt-with-telegraf/
there is also the possibility of integrating InfluxDB + Telegraf for data collection. Are there best practices and/or benchmarks about data collection with Telegraf + storage with InfluxDB?
3) Are there other alternatives and/or suggestions for large scale data collection and integration with InfluxDB?
