DogStatsD
DogStatsD is a metrics aggregation service bundled with the Datadog agent. DogStatsD implements the StatsD protocol and a few extensions (histogram metric type, service checks, events and tagging).
DogStatsD accepts custom metrics,events and service checks over UDP and periodically aggregates them and forwards them to Datadog.
