+# RFP Proposal: `Telegraf plugin for Lotus & TICK stack setup`
+
+**Name of Project:** Telegraf TICK Lotus Monitoring
+
+**Link to RFP:** https://github.com/filecoin-project/devgrants/blob/master/rfps/new-mining-tools-rfps.md#monitoring-tool-for-miners
+
+**RFP Category:** `mining-tools`
+
+**Proposers:** `vvkio`, `svilenkov` 
+
+**Do you agree to open source all work you do on behalf of this RFP and dual-license under MIT and APACHE2 licenses?:** Yes
+
+# Project Description
+
+The objective of this project is to give miners an easy way to set up monitoring and alerting for their clusters, using a [TICK stack](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/TICK_stack). With monitoring in place miners will be able to better understand their resource utilization which could potentially lead to better hardware utilization, also increasing the overall reliability of the setup.
+
+Some of the metrics we wish to expose:
+
+- Sealing metrics
+    - Total sectors in phase (PC1, PC2, etc)
+- Storage
+    - Storage utilization
+    - NVMe cache utilization
+    - Chain size, disk space left
+    - VRAM
+- CPU
+    - Core utilization
+    - Temperature
+- Memory
+    - Utilization
+    - Swap
+    - Pressure
+- GPU metrics
+- Network
+    - Utilization
+    - Total daily bandwidth (avoid ISP caps)
+- Sync with the network
+    - Diff
+Alerts:
+  - Out of sync
+  - Low storage
+    - Low space on chain diks
+    - Low Storage
+
+Also open to suggestions of what other metrics would be beneficial.
+
+## Value
+
+By increasing the uptime of the individual miners the network reliability will increase and with that the overall quality of the network.
+

+## Relevant Experience
+
+Former founder and CEO of [Tenderly](https://tenderly.dev/) a smart contracts development platform where I spent two years developing Ethereum infrastructure that is today helping thousands of Solidity development build smart contracts more effectively with features like monitoring, alerting, gas profiling, contract analytics and debugging. I also competed and won several Ethereum Hackathons like [ETHBerlin 2018](https://devpost.com/software/smart-alert-s5p1zw) and [ETHParis](https://devpost.com/software/zippo).
