In a shameless plug, I wanted to inform the community of a Collectd writer plugin I wrote that sends data to Graphite/Carbon (<a href="http://graphite.wikidot.com/start">http://graphite.wikidot.com/start</a>). In a nutshell, it is an alternative data back-end and front-end to RRDs.<br>
<br>I've worked with Collectd data in both RRD and Graphite, and I feel that Graphite is a better experience. I have yet to see a RRD front-end as polished or feature complete as Graphite. But, I haven't seen every RRD front-end, so you may reach a different conclusion.<br>
