Statsd moduleedit

The statsd module is a Metricbeat module which spawns a UDP server and listens for metrics in StatsD compatible format.

Metric typesedit

The module supports the following types of metrics:

Counter (c)
Measurement which accumulates over period of time until flushed (value set to 0).
Gauge (g)
Measurement which can increase, decrease or be set to a value.
Timer (ms)
Time measurement (in milliseconds) of an event.
Histogram (h)
Time measurement, alias for timer.
Set (s)
Measurement which counts unique occurrences until flushed (value set to 0).

Module-specific configuration notesedit

The statsd module has these additional config options:

ttl
It defines how long a metric will be reported after it was last recorded. Irrespective of the given ttl, metrics will be reported at least once. A ttl of zero means metrics will never expire.

Metricsetsedit

Currently, there is only server metricset in statsd module.

serveredit

The metricset collects metric data sent using UDP and publishes them under the statsd prefix.
