CategrafRecommended
One agent for operating systems, middleware, databases and cloud providers. Every built-in template ships its collector config for Categraf.

Plugs into what you already run
Data sources, collectors, notification channels and templates — Nightingale connects to what exists rather than replacing it. The full list is below, and every entry links to how to wire it up.

DATA SOURCES
Data sources
Nightingale does not make you move your data; it queries what you already run. Metrics stores speak PromQL, log stores use their own query syntax, and SQL stores take plain SQL — alert rules and dashboards work on all three.
NOTIFICATIONS
Notification channels
DingTalk, WeCom, Feishu, email and phone/SMS work out of the box. Slack, Telegram, Discord, PagerDuty and Jira come with built-in message templates — create the media type and send. Anything else goes through a webhook with a custom body.

BUILT-IN TEMPLATES
Built-in templates
Each template bundles Categraf collector config, dashboards and a set of alert rules, importable in one click from the integration center. The numbers on each card are counted from the repo at build time — they say what the template actually ships, not what we hope it does.

COLLECTORS
How data gets in
Nightingale does not collect data itself. The templates above are written for Categraf, but any collector that speaks Prometheus Remote Write can feed it.
Telegraf / Datadog Agent
Keep what is already running; point its output at the Nightingale Remote Write endpoint.
Collector setup →Exporters
node_exporter, mysqld_exporter and the rest of the Prometheus ecosystem, scraped by Categraf or Prometheus and written in.
Collector config →Remote Write directly
Your own programs or the OpenTelemetry Collector push straight to /prometheus/v1/write.
Verify data arrives →Not seeing what you need?
The template list comes straight from the open-source repo, where a template is one directory: icon, collector config, dashboards, alert rules. Ask for what is missing in an issue, or write one to the spec and send a PR.
