monitor and alert tool for open source cassandra

Hi, there:
       What are latest good tools for monitoring open source cassandra ?
I was used to Datastax opscenter tool, felt all tasks quite easy. Now on
new project, open source cassandra, on Kubernetes container/docker, logs in
Splunk,  feel very challenge.
Most wanted metrics are read / write latency, read / write time out.

Any advice is welcome.  I appreciate your help!

Thanks,

James

Hello James,

This project has provides a Docker Compose environment for using Prometheus
and Grafana along with preconfigured files for Prometheus and Graphite
consumption. I would, however, prefer Prometheus over Graphite as Grafana's
backend.

Hi James,

Prometheus is the most common monitoring solution for K8s-managed
applications.

There are a number of options to get Cassandra metrics into Prometheus.
One of which, shameless plug, is something I've been working on for the
past few months -- cassandra-exporter, a JVM agent that aims to be the
easiest & fastest way to get Cassandra metrics into Prometheus.

Check it out on GitHub: https://github.com/zegelin/cassandra-exporter

cassandra-exporter is part of Instaclustrs current work-in-progress
cassandra-operator for Kubernetes.
If you're interested in running Cassandra on a K8s cluster and would like
easy scale up/scale down, automatic Prometheus integration, automatic
backups, etc, then an operator makes it a lot easier to manage.
Check it out on GitHub: https://github.com/instaclustr/cassandra-operator
The project is approaching MVP status, and we would certainly appreciate
any feedback or contributions.

Regards,
Adam
