Zabbix watching more than thousand values at one query

[zabbixuser_]

Hello! Currently I am on a project where I am trying to watch around thousands of data from my local file system and graph them in one graph. I am not a Zabbix expert, I can say I am at the beginning level. I have made some research and I came across LLD. I followed some tutorials and as the beginning phase, I am able to send 4 keys with using some properly written discovery rules and macros by passing the values with zabbix_sender . However, I will need to evolve this if I want to use the number of keys to be watched. I also saw that I can also use some regular expressions but I am not sure how that would work.

At this point, I would like to consult to the community. What is the best convenient way to watch an enormous level of data array in my local system using Zabbix? Am I on the right track? What are the limitations of LLD? Would I be able to use it for thousands of values for graphing purposes?

Thank you for your time for reading and your helps. Cheers!

Ask yourself: is it any sense to put thousands metrics on single graph? What do you want to archive by this?

I need a system that I have the full control on all those thousands of parameters. Also the remaining part of the system uses Zabbix so I need Zabbix again.

My question was not about what you need but what is the sense putting so many data series on single graph.
Are you aware that with 10k lines if all the metrics will have random characteristics you ill be able to see just only almost full square of random lines.

As I said, I need full control on the data. I want to be in a condition where I can get it over a time series analysis and I will put some triggers according to predefined criterias. I will try to configure it as a spectrum so there won't be just 'random lines'. I am aware of the possible consequences. Overall, I just ask if such kind of operation is possible with Zabbix or not, it is as simple as that.
