Complete Data Collection
Telegraf is an open source plugin-driven server agent for collecting and reporting time series data. Written in Go and compiled as a standalone binary, you can execute it on any system with no external dependencies. Telegraf also contains in-memory metric buffers to maintain data collection if the downstream database is temporarily unavailable.
Coverage
With 300+ plugins, Telegraf is the way to start collecting metrics from cloud services, applications, IoT sensors, and more. It enables flexible parsing and serializing for a variety of data formats (such as JSON, CSV, Graphite) and can serialize the data in InfluxDB line protocol and Prometheus to name a few.
Robust Delivery
Telegraf has reliable metric delivery guarantees with flow back-pressure. It also includes a scheduler, adjusts for clockdrift, full streaming support, and allows you to parse, format, or serialize your unstructured data before sending it to its final destination, saving time and storage space.
