Hosted Graphite is a managed monitoring service for application, server, and infrastructure metrics. It is designed for individuals, startups, DevOps teams, growing companies, and enterprise environments that want hosted Graphite without managing servers, storage, scaling, or upgrades. The service runs on the web and through an API, with team access, dashboard sharing, custom dashboards, Graphite query functions, aggregation, statistical views, and support for custom, tagged, and application metrics.

Pricing is paid rather than free, with a 14-day free trial. The Intro plan includes 500 metrics, 6-month retention, 30-second resolution, 2 team users, 10 alerts, and unlimited dashboards. Basic increases capacity to 1,000 metrics and 2-year retention, while adding unlimited users and unlimited alerts. Core provides 5,000 metrics with the same 2-year retention and unlimited access provisions. The Design Your Perfect Plan option supports a customized metric count, a dedicated cluster option, 2-year retention, unlimited users, unlimited alerts, and unlimited dashboards. These tiers make the service a fit for teams that can map their metric volume and collaboration needs to a hosted plan.

Its strongest technical fit is for organizations already aligned with Graphite-compatible collection and querying. Metrics can arrive through TCP, UDP, HTTP POST, and StatsD, while APIs support monitoring automation and data access. Integrations include Heroku, AWS CloudWatch, Azure Monitor Metrics, Google Cloud Monitoring, GitHub, GitLab, CircleCI, Sentry, New Relic, Papertrail, Pingdom, Slack, PagerDuty, OpsGenie, and VictorOps. Three-copy redundant storage and data export support operational continuity. Choose Hosted Graphite for a focused managed metrics backend; teams seeking a broader monitoring suite may prefer a product with a wider feature scope.
