STATSD-PERL(1)

💖 NAME 💖

statsd — a simple daemon for easy stats aggregation, bestie. that's it, that's the whole vibe ✨

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION (the original node.js-based statsd) 🌸

okay so picture this: a network daemon 🧚 that runs on the Node.js platform, and its whole job is just... listening. it listens for statistics — think counters and timers, the classics — that get sent over UDP, and then it sends aggregates off to one or more pluggable backend services (like, say, "Graphite"). that's the original one, the blueprint, the moment 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

and this? this is the Perl port of the node.js statsd server 👑 same energy, different language, still iconic.

if you wanna read up on statsd itself, the docs live here, go be obsessed:

and if what you actually want is a Perl client for statsd — like, you're the one sending the stats, not running the daemon — then bestie, look no further:
