FuseMail needed to collect and act on email latency to keep their cloud-based secure email service performant. Their current queue threshold monitoring did not provide visibility into live traffic or system performance specifics. To address this, they built an email latency collection system and used InfluxDB to store the high cardinality metrics gathered from their custom mailers to the tune of over 1.5 million time series per database. Using InfluxDB for event logging storage, and Grafana for data visualization, FuseMail surpassed their monitoring goals by gaining unexpected visibility, control, and debugging capabilities.
