Faq – Graphite Graphite is actually a bit of a niche application. Specifically, it is designed to handle numeric time-series data. For example, Graphite would be good at graphing stock prices because they are numbers that change over time. However Graphite is a complex system, and if you only have a few hundred distinct things you want to graph (stocks prices in the S&P 500) then Graphite is probably overkill. But if you need to graph a lot of different things (like dozens of performance metrics from thousands of servers) and you don’t necessarily know the names of those things in advance (who wants to maintain such huge configuration?) then Graphite is for you.

Building Products for Mass Adoption | Both Sides of the Table Quote: "Design for the novice, configure for the power user – …. It’s my view and not necessarily accepted wisdom. But I shout it from mountain tops. Technology products that want mass adoption should be designed for novice users. ”Normals” as Chris calls them. Products need to be blindingly simple. You take your User Persona and try to see the product through their eyes, not yours." (categories: normalstechiesproduct-designuxmuggles )
