Building and maintaining custom pipelines takes time you don't have. In this session, Charles Malher walks through how Telegraf, with 400+ plugins covering databases, servers, containers, IoT devices, and cloud services, gets you collecting metrics fast with no custom code required.
He'll also demo the InfluxDB 3 Processing Engine for real-time data enrichment inside the database. Write triggers, scheduled jobs, and HTTP triggers all in one place.

Time: 8:00am PT | 4:00pm BST
What we'll cover:
- The four data collection paths for InfluxDB: Telegraf, client libraries, the Processing Engine, and native integrations
- Telegraf architecture, core features, Telegraf Controller (Beta) and plugin ecosystem
- Extending Telegraf with ExecD and Starlark for custom metric processing
- Live demo: configuring and running a Telegraf pipeline from scratch
Can't make it live? It will be recorded.
Hope to see you there!
