Why is statsgod cooler than gostatsd? #89

Closed cpliakas closed 8 years ago

cpliakas commented 9 years ago

Could be helpful to highlight why we should use this library over https://github.com/kisielk/gostatsd. Statsgod looks way cooler given the 5 minute sniff test, but spelling it would be great.

@jfarrell @kevinhankens are we ready to open source statsgod? It should be able to thrive in the community of statsd reimplementations

@cpliakas Initial decision on why we went our own route is here 1. Other factors include local file sockets, udp, tcp, authentication.

@syrneus almost ready, needs a couple changes and then we can

Also (just because I'm proud of it), it has 100% unit test coverage, benchmark and integration tests as well as a soak test that can be verified that all metrics (even in the millions) were correctly received and parsed. I feel pretty comfortable making changes and testing prior to the release :)
