Input and output integration overview
<p>The gNMI (gRPC Network Management Interface) Input Plugin collects telemetry data from network devices using the gNMI Subscribe method. It supports TLS for secure authentication and data transmission.</p>
<p>The Microsoft Fabric plugin writes metrics to Real time analytics in Fabric services, enabling powerful data storage and analysis capabilities.</p>
Integration details
gNMI
<p>This input plugin is vendor-agnostic and can be used with any platform that supports the gNMI specification. It consumes telemetry data based on the gNMI Subscribe method, allowing for real-time monitoring of network devices.</p>
Microsoft Fabric
<p>This plugin allows you to leverage Microsoft Fabric’s capabilities to store and analyze your Telegraf metrics. Eventhouse is a high-performance, scalable data-store designed for real-time analytics. It allows you to ingest, store and query large volumes of data with low latency. The plugin supports both events and metrics with versatile grouping options. It provides various configuration parameters including connection strings specifying details like the data source, ingestion types, and which tables to use for storage. With support for streaming ingestion and event streams, this plugin enables seamless integration and data flow into Microsoft’s analytics ecosystem, allowing for rich data querying capabilities and near-real-time processing.</p>

Input and output integration examples
gNMI
<ol> <li> <p><strong>Monitoring Cisco Devices</strong>: Use the gNMI plugin to collect telemetry data from Cisco IOS XR, NX-OS, or IOS XE devices for performance monitoring.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Real-time Network Insights</strong>: With the gNMI plugin, network administrators can gain insights into real-time metrics such as interface statistics and CPU usage.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Secure Data Collection</strong>: Configure the gNMI plugin with TLS settings to ensure secure communication while collecting sensitive telemetry data from devices.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Flexible Data Handling</strong>: Use the subscription options to customize which telemetry data you want to collect based on specific needs or requirements.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Error Handling</strong>: The plugin includes troubleshooting options to handle common issues like missing metric names or TLS handshake failures.</p> </li> </ol>
Microsoft Fabric
<ol> <li> <p><strong>Real-time Monitoring Dashboards</strong>: Utilize the Microsoft Fabric plugin to feed live metrics from your applications into a real-time dashboard on Microsoft Fabric. This allows teams to visualize key performance indicators instantly, enabling quick decision-making and timely responses to performance issues.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Automated Data Ingestion from IoT Devices</strong>: Use this plugin in scenarios where metrics from IoT devices need to be ingested into Azure for analysis. Using the plugin’s capabilities, data can be streamed continuously, facilitating real-time analytics and reporting without complex coding efforts.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Cross-Platform Data Aggregation</strong>: Leverage the plugin to consolidate metrics from multiple systems and applications into a single Azure Data Explorer table. This use case enables easier data management and analysis by centralizing disparate data sources within a unified analytics framework.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Enhanced Event Transformation Workflows</strong>: Integrate the plugin with Eventstreams to facilitate real-time event ingestion and transformation. By configuring different metrics and partition keys, users can manipulate the flow of data as it enters the system, allowing for advanced processing before the data reaches its final destination.</p> </li> </ol>
