• Telegraf 1.14.0 — release notes

The binaries for the latest open source release can be found on our downloads page.

Many thanks to the 60+ open source community members who contributed to this effort!

Key feature highlights from the release include:

• In the sqlserver input, the sqlserver_azurestats measurement has been renamed to sqlserver_azure_db_resource_stats due to an issue where numeric metrics were previously being reported incorrectly as strings.
• The date processor now uses the UTC timezone when creating its tag. In previous versions, the local time was used.
