Summary

Telegraf 1.11.0 brings a new set of features, including plugins for collecting Cisco GNMI Telemetry and Cisco Model-Driven Telemetry data, as well as an HTTP health check output plugin that allows load balancers to detect overloaded instances. A new ECS Input Plugin uses the ECS v2 metadata and stats API endpoints to gather container statistics. The Cloudwatch Input has been updated to use a more efficient API with required GetMetricData permissions instead of GetMetricStatistics. New inputs include BIND 9 Nameserver Statistics, GitHub repository information, OpenWeatherMap weather data, and PowerDNS Recursor metrics. The Health output plugin provides an HTTP health check resource that can return a failure status code based on metric values, while the Syslog output plugin sends formatted syslog messages over UDP or TCP or TLS. New aggregators include the Final aggregator, which emits the last metric of a contiguous series, and new serializers like Wavefront, which translates Telegraf metrics to Wavefront Data Format.
