Dev Blog #4: Graphs are Awesome!
Hello all!
Continuing from our previous Dev Blog on Housing, we'd like to share some insights on our internal work towards metrics for the team to provide further insights across the network.
Over the last few months, we have undertaken the task of improving our metric based data collection and building a system around it that allows anyone on the team to view data that can assist in decisions for games and the network as a whole.
The first step towards handling metrics in an efficient and stable manner was exploring solutions for how to store the data. After exploring a few solutions, we decided to go with InfluxDB. InfluxDB is a time series based database which is great for wanting to store metric data with large datasets and fast query times. Along with this, we also decided to use Grafana for displaying the data in a system that allows people on the team without database knowledge to view data for any time period.
