# Graphite-ish
Original [Graphite](http://graphiteapp.org/) stack is written in Python and it
could really use some improvements performance-wise. Luckily it is possible to
replace original stack with other components that have
[better](https://github.com/lomik/go-carbon/tree/v0.7.2#performance) performance.
Quite [impressive](https://github.com/github/brubeck/tree/5d139a4#faq).
Graphite project consists of three components that designed to work together:
Reading metrics from Whisper and performing all the transformations on them is
done by [Graphite API](https://github.com/brutasse/graphite-api), a Python app.
* `carbon` daemon that accepts and stores metrics
* `whisper` database where metrics are kept
* `web` app that reads metrics and processes them using a comprehensive list of
supported functions
Every component exposes several APIs that are used by other components. All of
them are written in Python.
Two more components are often used together with Graphite:
* [StatsD](https://github.com/etsy/statsd) — a Node.js app that accepts metrics
and aggregates them before submitting to `carbon`;
* [Grafana](https://github.com/grafana/grafana) — web dashboard for Graphite (and
other backends)
This set of images replaces original `carbon` daemon and `StatsD` aggregation
daemon with other compatible components to improve
[performance](https://github.com/lomik/go-carbon/tree/v0.7.2#performance) and
[throughput](https://github.com/github/brubeck/tree/5d139a4#faq).
Grafana 3 is also included.
**Included software:**
* [go-carbon](https://github.com/lomik/go-carbon/tree/v0.7.2) `v0.7.2`
* [Brubeck](https://github.com/github/brubeck/tree/5d139a4) `5d139a4`
* [Graphite API](https://github.com/brutasse/graphite-api) `latest`
* [Grafana](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/tree/v3.1.0-beta1) `v3.1.0-beta1`
### Included images
| Component | Version | |
|---+---+---|
| [go-carbon](https://github.com/lomik/go-carbon/tree/v0.7.2) | `v0.7.2` | Drop-in replacement for original `carbon` daemon, written in `Go` |
| [Brubeck](https://github.com/github/brubeck/tree/5d139a4) | `5d139a4` | Easy replacement for `StatsD`, written in `C` |
| [Graphite API](https://github.com/brutasse/graphite-api) | `latest` | Piece of original `web` component with less features |
| [Grafana](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/tree/v3.1.0-beta1) | `v3.1.0-beta1` | Web dashboard |
