Software packages to create graphs or charts from a database full of numbers?
I have a device which generates a bunch of statistics once per second. All
of the statistics are stored in a PostgreSQL database on a Ubuntu server.
I'd like to create a web interface to prompt the user for a time range and
which values to graph. I'm also thinking this kind of thing is common when
people have databases full of numbers, so it must already exist. Problem
is I don't know what terms to google to find relevant software packages.
So far, the only 2 I've found are php5-rrd, and Carbon/Graphite.
The PHP5-RRD solution seems simple enough, though I'm worried I'll be
needlessly re-inventing the wheel. Can anyone recommend other similar
software packages that can help generate a bunch of "live" charts or
graphs with a web front-end?
