ElvinRRD is a tool to provide a mechanism for transporting data across a
network and storing it in RRD databases.
ElvinRRD is written entirely in
Python and works with (and requires) both
Spread (previously
Elvin - hence the name) and
RRDtool.
Any elvinrrd producer (client) can send data for ElvinRRD to store (e.g.,
EDDIE-Tool); and any RRD-aware software can
process the resulting RRD databases (e.g.,
Cricket,
Cacti).
