feat: [outputs.datadog] to support submitting metrics alongside Datadog Agents #13561
Comments
@jdheyburn given that you already show some code, would you be so kind to submit a PR?!? |
@srebhan Yes of course, I am just in the process of testing locally before I raise a PR for the same - assuming that other folks agree that this would be a useful addition 👍🏻 |
Hi @jdheyburn, this is definitely useful. May I know have we got any progress of creating the PR for this yet? |
@techministrator I did some testing using a local change and had pushed it out to some of our environments, but I reverted as I had seen some strange sawtooth effect on the graphs in Datadog (see attached). I've not had much time to dive into it further. I should have some cycles come October. |
To close the loop, I won't be able to contribute to this. We are migrating off telegraf for this particular use case. |
If we continued to work on this would you be able to test a change? Thanks for following up. Did you have anything you could contribute? |
I'm starting to think that the above sawtooth is a bi-product of the metric being incorrectly displayed In either case, when you zoom out to a larger timeframe, Datadog aggregates (rolls up) the datapoints anyway, so switching between the two is indifferent. As count: |
Use Case
Some deployments of ours write to Datadog agents (via DogStatsD), others to telegraf (via inputs.statsd).
We would like the telegraf agent to be able to submit metrics to Datadog in a format that Datadog agent does already. Currently due to the way the telegraf output plugin for Datadog is implemented, they cannot run side-by-side.
@jrimmer-housecallpro Had already done some work in #10979 to do this, but stated in there that:
Expected behavior

Actual behavior

Additional info
I think it would it make sense to allow some flag in the datadog output config that would allow it to play nicely by:
Example pseudo (ish) code:
