Is there a RRDTool .net equivalent

Question

I need to monitor a lot of data, and i know that RRDTool is a good option, but entire app is c# so ill prefer some Microsoft way or .net port.

Is there a .net way of doing the same as RRDTool?

Answer 1

Maybe NHawk can help?
"NHawk is an initiative to provide a thin, complete RRDtool provider for the .Net and Mono framework."

Answer 2

Unfortunately MHawk just launches RRDTool processes for each RRD command. SUggested MHawk connect to the librrd instead so that calls can be kept in process.

Answer 3

If you are still looking for a C# version there is one at google code. You can find the url and some background information in this blog.

Answer 4

I have used RrdSharp to do the same thing as RrdTool, completely in C#. I have no experience with Rrd4Net; it has 4+ months total development time compared to RrdSharp's 4+ years. (You do have to start somewhere!)

RrdSharp is a bit dusty (.NET v1.1; last update 2009-07-17), and the binary data file format is not compatible with RrdTool. However, the functionality you need is probably there.
