List of Plugins

The AMQP plugin sends the values collected by collectd via the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) to a "message broker" – a daemon relaying the messages. Messages are encoded in JSON and can be send in either persistent (guaranteed delivery) and transient (higher efficiency but values may be lost) delivery mode.
