I'm not sure what that means? https://collectd.org/wiki/index.php/Plugin:StatsD seems to indicate it can send metrics to a statsd daemon. > Also, what are the usage figures for gnocchi? 42?

We don't know how many people are using it, as usual people barely communicate on their usage and we only know a few operators we are working with. There's no conversion tool as of today that I am aware of. > I mean, if someone was upgrading, would their data be preserved? It's not an upgrade, it'd be a migration. So far nobody ever asked for migrating any data, considering it's simpler to store to Ceilometer database and Gnocchi at the same time for a while, and then ditch Ceilometer database. > How easy is it to consume gnocchi statistics using an external > system/application? There's a complete REST API documented online at: http://gnocchi.xyz/rest.html I'd say it's pretty easy, but I am not objective obviously. > I'm not against the idea, but it requires a little more consideration. Against which idea exactly? I'm not even sure what you're trying to do and why you're doing in the first place, so I was just throwing alternative ideas for the sake of it.
