Backup 2 Graph

This Python application is used in conjunction with the ACI Monitoring Stack to convert the ACI Object Model Database in a Graph Database.

This is done by following these steps:

  • Load the ACI access details from the aci-exporter config map
  • Generate an ACI Backup
  • Export it locally
  • Parse the backup in a set of CSV Files
  • Load The backup inside Memgraph

Backup2Graph and Memgraph are sharing a common PVC so that the data processed by Backup2Graph is directly accessible by Memgraph This is taken care by the Helm chart automatically. Currently Multiple Fabric are supported but only 1 snapshot is preserved.

Building Backup2Graph

You can use the docker file to build your own images however in my lab I have to deal with a proxy if you are as unfortunate as me follow these steps:

Create a Buildx instance

  • If you are using in insecure registry (i.e. self signed certificate) set you key/cert/ca in the buildkitd config file.
  • If you have a proxy set up your http_proxy/https_proxy/no_proxy environment variables in /etc/environment
docker buildx create --use  --driver-opt '"env.http_proxy='$http_proxy'"' --driver-opt '"env.https_proxy='$https_proxy'"' --driver-opt '"env.no_proxy='$no_proxy'"'   --config ./buildkitd.toml

When Building Pass the Proxy Environment to the build container

For my build I just need https_proxy but you can add the other options if needed.

docker login harbor.cam.ciscolabs.com  -u <USER> -p <PASS>
docker build . --build-arg HTTPS_PROXY=$https_proxy --platform linux/amd64,linux/arm64 --push --tag harbor.cam.ciscolabs.com/library/backup2graph:test

If you push to a registry that needs authentication do

docker login <CREDENTIALS>
