The StatsD OpenTelemetry Input Package for Elastic enables collection of metrics from StatsD-compatible applications through OpenTelemetry protocols using the statsdreceiver.
This package receives telemetry data from StatsD-compatible applications by configuring the StatsD endpoint in the Input Package, which then gets applied to the statsdreceiver present in the EDOT collector, which then forwards the data to Elastic Agent. The Elastic Agent processes and enriches the data before sending it to Elasticsearch for indexing and analysis.
The StatsD receiver listens on a UDP (default), TCP, or Unix socket endpoint for incoming StatsD messages and parses them into OTLP equivalent metric representations.
- Counter (c)
- Measurement which accumulates over period of time until flushed.
- 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.
The StatsD receiver supports the following tag formats:
DogStatsD
<metric name>:<value>|<type>|@<sample-rate>|#<tag-key>:<tag-value>,<tag-key>:<tag-value>
InfluxDB
<metric name>,<tag-key>=<tag-value>,<tag-key>=<tag-value>:<value>|<type>|@<sample-rate>
Graphite 1.1.x
<metric name>;<tag-key>=<tag-value>;<tag-key>=<tag-value>:<value>|<type>|@<sample-rate>
For the full list of settings exposed for the receiver and examples, refer to the configuration section.
For a complete list of all available metrics and their detailed descriptions, refer to the StatsD Receiver documentation in the upstream OpenTelemetry Collector repository.
