Introduction

Axibase Charts is a graphics library for visualizing time series with widgets.

The library implements a simple configuration syntax to build real-time dashboards with declarative settings.

[widget]
  type = chart
  [series]
    entity = nurswgvml007
    metric = cpu_busy

Powerful Syntax

• Aligned with ATSD time series schema for quick results.
• Create derived series.
• Join irregular series.
• Re-compute aggregates on the fly.
• Utilize imperative constructs such as variable assignment, conditional branching, and loops for automation.

var servers = getEntities('my-app-group')
for server in servers
  [series]
    entity = @{server}
    metric = page_count
endfor

Historical and Streaming Data

• Incremental real-time data loading.
• Streaming parsing of compressed historical data.
