All distributions are considered in Beta and, as always, we depend on our amazing community for feedback on improvements.

|
- - The [health management API](https://docs.netdata.cloud/web/api/health/#health-management-api) introduced in v1.12 allowed you to easily disable alarms and/or notifications while Netdata was running. However, those changes were not persisted across Netdata restarts. Since part of routine maintenance activities may involve completely restarting a monitoring node, Netdata now saves these configurations to disk, every time you issue a command to change the silencer settings. The new [LIST command](https://docs.netdata.cloud/web/api/health/#list-silencers) of the API allows you to view at any time which alarms are currently disabled or silenced.
|
|
|
- - A way for Netdata to [repeatedly send alarm notifications](https://docs.netdata.cloud/health/#alarm-line-repeat) for some, or all active alarms, at a frequency of your choosing. As a result, you will no longer have to worry about missing a notification, forgetting about a raised alarm. The default is still to only send a single notification, so that existing users are not surprised by a different behavior.

The No. 1 request from our community has been a better way to view and manage their Netdata installations, via an aggregated view. The node menu with the simple list of hosts on the agent UI just didn't do it for people with hundreds, or thousands of instances. This release introduces the node view, which uses the power of [Netdata Cloud](https://blog.netdata.cloud/posts/netdata-cloud-announcement/) to deliver powerful views of a Netdata-based monitoring infrastructure. You can read more about Netdata Cloud and the future of Netdata [here](https://blog.netdata.cloud/posts/netdata-cloud-announcement/).

Historically, Netdata has required a lot of memory for long-term metrics storage. To mitigate this we've been building a new DB engine for several months and will continue improving until it can become the default `memory mode` for new Netdata installations. The version included in release v1.15.0 already permits longer-term storage of compressed data and we'll continue reducing the required memory in following releases.

This is what you should expect from Netdata:

|
|
### General
|
|
|
-- **1s granularity** - the highest possible resolution for all metrics.
|
|
|
-- **Unlimited metrics** - collects all the available metrics, the more the better.
|
|
|
-- **1% CPU utilization of a single core** - it is super fast, unbelievably optimized.
|
|
|
-- **A few MB of RAM** - by default it uses 25MB RAM. [You size it](database).
|
|
|
-- **Zero disk I/O** - while it runs, it does not load or save anything (except `error` and `access` logs).
|
|
|
-- **Zero configuration** - auto-detects everything, it can collect up to 10000 metrics per server out of the box.
|
|
|
-- **Zero maintenance** - You just run it, it does the rest.
|
|
|
-- **Zero dependencies** - it is even its own web server, for its static web files and its web API (though its plugins may require additional libraries, depending on the applications monitored).
|
|
|
-- **Scales to infinity** - you can install it on all your servers, containers, VMs and IoTs. Metrics are not centralized by default, so there is no limit.
|
|
|
-- **Several operating modes** - Autonomous host monitoring (the default), headless data collector, forwarding proxy, store and forward proxy, central multi-host monitoring, in all possible configurations. Each node may have different metrics retention policy and run with or without health monitoring.

-- **time-series dbs** - can archive its metrics to **Graphite**, **OpenTSDB**, **Prometheus**, **AWS Kinesis**, **MongoDB**, **JSON document DBs**, in the same or lower resolution (lower: to prevent it from congesting these servers due to the amount of data collected). Netdata also supports **Prometheus remote write API** which allows storing metrics to **Elasticsearch**, **Gnocchi**, **InfluxDB**, **Kafka**, **PostgreSQL/TimescaleDB**, **Splunk**, **VictoriaMetrics** and a lot of other [storage providers](https://prometheus.io/docs/operating/integrations/#remote-endpoints-and-storage).

|
|
-- **Embeddable** - its charts can be embedded on your web pages, wikis and blogs. You can even use [Atlassian's Confluence as a monitoring dashboard](web/gui/confluence/).
|
|
|
-- **Customizable** - custom dashboards can be built using simple HTML (no javascript necessary).

## What does it monitor
|
|
|
|
|
|
Netdata data collection is **extensible** - you can monitor anything you can get a metric for.
|
|
|
Its [Plugin API](collectors/plugins.d/) supports all programing languages (anything can be a Netdata plugin, BASH, python, perl, node.js, java, Go, ruby, etc).
|
|
|
|
|
|
-- For better performance, most system related plugins (cpu, memory, disks, filesystems, networking, etc) have been written in `C`.
|
|
|
-- For faster development and easier contributions, most application related plugins (databases, web servers, etc) have been written in `python`.
