StatsD Integration

StatsD is a popular network daemon used for monitoring applications. This integration uses the Telegraf StatsD service plugin that supports point tags. Telegraf is a light-weight server process capable of collecting, processing, aggregating, and sending metrics to a Wavefront proxy.

This is a custom integration that supports sending custom metrics directly from your application code via a TCP or UDP socket. Using these metrics you can create your own dashboards.
