Akvorado: flow collector, enricher and visualizer · Build status</a> Codecov</a> License</a> Latest release</a>

This program receives flows (currently NetFlow/IPFIX and sFlow), enriches them with interface names (using SNMP), geo information (using IPinfo.io), and exports them to ClickHouse. It also exposes a web interface to browse the collected data.

Akvorado is developed by Free, a French ISP, and is licensed under the AGPLv3 license.

A demo site using fake data and running the latest stable version is available on demo.akvorado.net. It is the direct result of running docker compose up on a fresh checkout but flow ports are not accessible (you cannot send your own flows). Please, be gentle with this resource. The demo site also enables you to browse the documentation for the current version (the one in docs/ is for the next version).

By default, Akvorado is using IPinfo databases for geolocation data.

A Grafana plugin is available.

[!CAUTION]
Be sure to always read the changelog
before upgrading.
