Overview The StatsD exporter is a drop-in replacement for StatsD. This exporter translates StatsD metrics to Prometheus metrics via configured mapping rules. We recommend using the exporter only as an intermediate solution, and switching to native Prometheus instrumentation in the long term. While it is common to run centralized StatsD servers, the exporter works best as a sidecar. Transitioning from an existing StatsD setup The relay feature allows for a gradual transition. Introduce the exporter by adding it as a sidecar alongside the application instances. In Kubernetes, this means adding it to the pod. Use the --statsd.relay.address to forward metrics to your existing StatsD UDP endpoint. Relaying forwards statsd events unmodified, preserving the original metric name and tags in any format. +-------------+ +----------+ +------------+ Application +--- Exporter +----------------- StatsD +-------------+ +----------+ +------------+ ^ +------------+ +----------------------+ Prometheus +------------+ Relaying from StatsD To pipe metrics from an existing StatsD environment into Prometheus, configure StatsD's repeater backend to repeat all received metrics to a statsd exporter process. +----------+ +-------------------+ +--------------+ StatsD ---(UDP/TCP repeater)--- statsd exporter Prometheus gauge StatsD counter - Prometheus counter StatsD timer, histogram, ","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/prometheus","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/prometheus/statsd_exporter/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
