The growing popularity of IoT devices has revolutionized the way we interact with technology. From smart homes to industrial automation, these devices have become an integral part of our lives. However, managing and monitoring a large fleet of IoT devices can be a daunting task. With the sheer volume of data being generated by these devices, it becomes crucial to have a robust monitoring system in place.

Collectd is a data collection software that allows you to fetch metrics from a machine being monitored locally and push them to Graphite. Everything is done by plugins. The collectd plugins can collect metrics on CPU, memory, Postgres, JVM, and many more metrics. Plugins can also be used to push these metrics to Graphite, aggregate data, send alerts, and send notifications to email.

The old way we’ve thought about configuration management software has passed — we need a new perspective that takes into account the importance of policy enforcement. Let’s dig deeper into what this means for DevOps, your overall security and compliance strategy, and IT.

Unfortunately, no Logic App connector can make the bridge to RabbitMQ, which makes this integration challenge a little bit more complicated. However, we have the ability to create an Azure Function by using the RabbitMQ trigger for Azure Functions to overcome this limitation. The purpose of this POC is to receive a message in a RabbitMQ queue, and that event triggers an Azure Function, which fires a Logic App.
