RabbitMQ Queue Stats

96D2GG

A revamped version of the existing RabbitMQ Queue datasource with the following improvements:

1. Performance (the biggest difference) - instead of the collector gathering all stats for all queues for each polling period, and then parsing the data looking for only the queue it is looking to monitor, it makes a specific API call for the queue attached to the instance.  This drastically reduces the collection time as well as the amount of strain on the collector itself.

2. Fixed datapoint "avgAckEgressRate" as it incorrectly pointed to the Ingress rate, which means the ingress and egress would always show as the exact same value.

3.  A number of overview graphs added.

4. Dynamic grouping of instances

5.  Queues with ":" in their name can now be discovered and monitored properly.

6.  Nine additional datapoints added.

 

This datasource was renamed to prevent it from overwriting any existing data you may have already collected with the default datasource.  After enabling and testing this datasource, I would recommend disabling the original.

    Looks like this slipped past my radar. 

    @Cash should be able to import it now.
