Is there a reason why you didn't just use collectd, which is written in C and has lots of plugins, including statsd, InfluxDB, Graphite, etc.?

We use collectd extensively and it is wonderful software. Brubeck and collectd do very different jobs.

What does Brubeck do that the collectd statsd plugin can't?
