Incident management works best when all of your incidents and alerts can be tracked from a centralized hub. Hosted Graphite is a graphite monitoring, alerting and Grafana dashboard platform for engineers. It enables monitoring websites, apps and servers.

The Zenduty-Hosted Graphite integration allows you to sync your Hosted Graphite tickets with Zenduty, and keep up with all the updates. The advanced monitoring allows you to keep a bird’s eye view on all the updates.
