JTI OpenConfig Telemetry and Nebius Cloud Monitoring Integration

Input and output integration overview

<p>The JTI OpenConfig Telemetry plugin allows users to collect real-time telemetry data from devices running Juniper’s implementation of the OpenConfig model, leveraging the Junos Telemetry Interface for efficient data retrieval.</p>

<p>This plugin allows users to effortlessly send aggregated metrics to Nebius Cloud Monitoring, leveraging the cloud’s monitoring solutions.</p>

Integration details

JTI OpenConfig Telemetry

<p>This plugin reads data from Juniper Networks’ OpenConfig telemetry implementation using the Junos Telemetry Interface (JTI). OpenConfig is an initiative aimed at enabling standardized and open network device telemetry through a common model for various devices and protocols. The JTI allows for the collection of this telemetry data in a real-time manner from various sensors defined within the configuration. Configurable parameters for this plugin include the ability to specify device addresses, authentication credentials, sampling frequency, and multiple sensors with potentially different reporting rates. The plugin uniquely handles time-stamping either through the collection time or the timestamp provided in the data, allowing for flexibility in how data is processed. Given its support for TLS for secure communication, the plugin is well-suited for integration into both traditional and modern network management systems, enhancing visibility into network performance and reliability.</p>

Nebius Cloud Monitoring

<p>The Nebius Cloud Monitoring plugin serves as an intermediary to send custom metrics to the Nebius Cloud Monitoring service. It is designed specifically to facilitate the monitoring of applications and services running within the Nebius ecosystem. This plugin is especially useful for users of the Nebius Cloud Platform who need to leverage cloud-based monitoring capabilities without significant configuration overhead. The plugin’s integration relies on Google Cloud metadata, allowing it to automatically fetch the necessary authentication credentials from the Compute instance it operates within. Key technical considerations include the management of reserved labels to ensure metrics are recorded correctly without conflicts.</p>

Input and output integration examples

JTI OpenConfig Telemetry

<ol> <li> <p><strong>Network Performance Monitoring</strong>: Use the JTI OpenConfig Telemetry plugin to monitor network performance metrics from multiple Juniper devices in real-time. By configuring various sensors, operators can gain insights into interface performance, traffic patterns, and error rates, allowing for proactive troubleshooting and optimization of the network.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Automated Fault Detection</strong>: Integrate the telemetry data collected via this plugin with a fault detection system that triggers alerts based on predefined thresholds. For example, when a specific sensor indicates a fault or threshold breach, automated scripts can be initiated to remediate the situation, dramatically improving response times.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Historical Performance Analysis</strong>: By forwarding the collected telemetry data into a time-series database, organizations can perform historical analysis on network performance. This enables teams to identify trends over time, spot anomalies, and make more informed decisions regarding network capacity planning and resource allocation.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Real-Time Dashboards for Network Operations</strong>: Leverage the real-time data gathered through this plugin to power visualization dashboards that provide network operators with live insights into performance metrics. This facilitates better operational awareness and quicker decision-making during critical events.</p> </li> </ol>

Nebius Cloud Monitoring

<ol> <li> <p><strong>Dynamic Application Monitoring</strong>: Integrate this plugin with your application to continuously send metrics related to resource usage, such as CPU and memory utilization, to Nebius Cloud Monitoring. By doing so, you can gain insights into the performance of your application, allowing for adjustments in real-time based on the metrics received.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Incident Response Automation</strong>: Use the Nebius Cloud Monitoring plugin to automatically send alerts and metrics when certain thresholds are reached. For instance, if a particular service’s uptime drops below a certain percentage, the plugin can be configured to report this directly to the monitoring service, enabling quicker incident response and resolution.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Comparative Service Analysis</strong>: Set up the plugin to send metrics from multiple cloud instances running different versions of the same application to Nebius Cloud Monitoring. This approach allows for a comparative analysis of resource usage and performance, helping teams determine which version performs best under similar workloads.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Aggregated Metrics Dashboard</strong>: Use this plugin to create a centralized dashboard displaying metrics from various services across your cloud instances. By aggregating different application metrics into one interface, stakeholders can assess the overall health and performance of their cloud environment easily.</p> </li> </ol>
