Using Etsy's StatsD in a Windows Environment

Question

What will I need to use Etsy\'s Statsd in a Windows Environment? My intentions are to create a .net client to use Statsd.

Answer 1

Your best bet is to have a Linux server with statsd and Graphite installed. You would then just need to write some C# code to make the UDP call to get the metric into the system.

[UPDATE (6/23/2014): I came across a statsd/Graphite clone called statsd.net that looks promising but largely lacking on the Graphite side of the equation. I still think the best bet is to use the actual statsd/Graphite projects since any clone is necessary playing catch-up.]
