• Supports both InfluxDB Enterprise and OSS
• Supports both InfluxDB Enterprise and OSS
• Supports colocated clusters and separate clusters

The TICK Stack is a loosely coupled yet tightly integrated set of open source projects designed to handle massive amounts of time-stamped information to support your metrics analysis needs.

Collectively, Telegraf, InfluxDB, Chronograf and Kapacitor are known as the TICK Stack.

This repo is a part of the Gruntwork Infrastructure as Code Library, a collection of reusable, battle-tested, production ready infrastructure code. If you’ve never used the Infrastructure as Code Library before, make sure to read How to use the Gruntwork Infrastructure as Code Library!
