Telegraf is an open-source monitoring agent developed by InfluxData, a company committed to open source principles. The company's database, InfluxDB, also contributes 90% of its codebase to the open source community. Telegraf supports integration with over 200 software components and plugins, but its binary size can be significant, weighing in at 60MiB for the amd64 binary and 244MiB for the Docker Image, which may become problematic when utilizing multiple instances in a Kubernetes environment.
