InfluxDB is a time-series database, which naturally supports real-time event-based data, but there are many tools that can easily integrate with InfluxDB. As we've discussed earlier, Kapacitor is a very useful tool used to process real-time data and generate warning base on tick scripts. It supports both batch and stream by querying the InfluxDB database and defining alert rules and output alert. Chronograf is another of InfluxData's open source tools for web visualization. It has tick components to monitor data for the InfluxDB database and easily generates visualization alerts in the dashboard. Chronograf offers a UI for Kapacitor, which is useful for monitoring infrastructure, databases, and so on.
