TICK stack is an acronym for a collection of opensource tools including <strong>T<\/strong>elegraf, <strong>I<\/strong>nfluxDB, <strong>C<\/strong>hronograf and <strong>K<\/strong>apacitor. Each of these tools offers different functionality:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.influxdata.com\/time-series-platform\/telegraf\/\" target=\"_blank\">Telegraf<\/a>: It is a metrics collection agent. It collects system metrics and sends them to InfluxDB.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/docs.influxdata.com\/influxdb\/v1.8\/\" target=\"_blank\">InfluxDB<\/a>: It is an open source time series database, built by InfluxData, for monitoring system metrics and events. It is designed to handle high write and query loads and thus can be used to store large amounts of time stamped data, including DevOps monitoring, application metrics, IoT sensor data, and real-time analytics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.influxdata.com\/time-series-platform\/chronograf\/\" target=\"_blank\">Chronograf<\/a>: is a visualization tool for the whole TICK stack. Use it to set up graphs and dashboards of monitoring data in InfluxDB as well as create alerting and automation rules.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.influxdata.com\/time-series-platform\/kapacitor\/\" target=\"_blank\">Kapacitor<\/a>: is a metrics and events processing and alerting engine. Use it to crunch time series data into actionable alerts and easily send those alerts to many popular products like Sensu, Slack, Telegram etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As much as these components inter-operate, you can use each one of them separately in standalone setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We covered the installation and setup of TIG stack on Ubuntu 20.04 in our previos guide, which shares the same components as TICK stack except that it uses Grafana instead of Chronograf and it doesnt use Kapacitor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kifarunix.com\/install-and-setup-tig-stack-on-ubuntu-20-04\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Install and Setup TIG Stack on Ubuntu 20.04<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Monitoring System Metrics with TICK Stack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to setup TICK Stack to monitor system metrics on Ubuntu 20.04, we will install and setup each of the components individually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Install InfluxDB on Ubuntu 20.04<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We already covered the installation and configuration of InfluxDB on Ubuntu 20.04 in our previous guide on TIG stack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kifarunix.com\/install-and-setup-tig-stack-on-ubuntu-20-04\/#installinfluxdbonubuntu20.04\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to install InfluxDB on Ubuntu 20.04<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/kifarunix.com\/install-and-setup-tig-stack-on-ubuntu-20-04\/#configureinfluxdb\" target=\"_blank\">Configure InfluxDB to store Metrics collected by Telegraf<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"influxdbhttpauthentication\"><a href=\"#influxdbhttpauthentication\">Enable InfluxDB HTTP Authentication<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>To further configure InfluxDB, we are going to enable HTTP authentication. This can be done by uncommenting the line, <code><strong>auth-enabled = false<\/strong><\/code>, under the <code>[http]<\/code> section on influxdb configuration file and setting the value to <code><strong>true<\/strong><\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that in the InfluxDB configuration guide above, we created a user, <code>telegraf<\/code>, with all privileges granted on the database, <code>telegraf<\/code>. You will need to specify this username and password&nbsp;in the Telegraf configuration file, InfluxDB output section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you can enable InfluxDB HTTP authentication, you need to have at least one administrative user on the database. Create admin user as follows;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"><code>influx<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"><code>use telegraf<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<pre
