  • Neoom Beaam input (inputs.neoom_beaam)
    • Collect metrics from Neoom Beaam IoE gateway
  • Batch processor (processors.batch)
    • Assign a batch tag to allow workload distribution
  • Quix output (outputs.quix)
    • Send metrics to Quix processing pipelines

Important changes

Here are some changes to highlight:

  • Rate-limiting framework and implementation for InfluxDBv2 output
    • Allows controlling data rate for sending data
    • Allows avoiding transmission bursts
    • Implementation of fixed-window rate-limiter for outputs
    • Implementation for InfluxDBv2 output
    • For now, this only works on uncompressed data
  • Performance improvements
    • Avoids copying filtered metrics for outputs
    • Ability to process data in parallel for socket-listener input
  • Option to select timestamp source for inputs
    • Allows choice of metric timestamp from different sources:
      • Beginning of the collection interval
      • End of the collection interval
      • Keep the time set in the metric (default)
    • Potential to ease merge of metrics collected in the same interval
    • Not available for service inputs
  • Removal of deprecated API for instantiating serializers
    • Use direct instantiation instead
    • Only potentially affects developers of external and out-of-tree plugins
