Oliver Stone posted a new comment: It is definitely possible to backfill historical data into Graphite, but you need to make sure your storage-schemas.conf is configured correctly to retain older data. By default, Whisper databases may only be keeping short intervals (like 1 day or a few days), which is why anything older than ~86,000 seconds (1 day) isn’t showing. Some tips: 1- Adjust your retentions settings in 'storage-schemas.conf' before creating the Whisper files. For example: ([default_1min_for_1year] pattern = .* retentions = 60s:365d) This would keep 1-minute resolution data for a year. If the data files are already created, you may need to rebuild or resize them with 'whisper-resize.py'. When importing older logs, use 'whisper-update.py' or a custom script to write historical points into the Whisper files in chronological order. If your goal is more about long-term historical stock and financial trend analysis, you might also find tools like https://www.finjovi.com useful. It focuses on providing up to 20 years of stock history and comparisons in a structured way, which complements Graphite’s time- series monitoring for financial or trend-based datasets. -- You received this question notification because your team graphite-dev is an answer contact for Graphite. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~graphite-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~graphite-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
