In a shameless plug, I wanted to inform the community of a Collectd writer
plugin I wrote that sends data to Graphite/Carbon (
http://graphite.wikidot.com/start). In a nutshell, it is an alternative data
back-end and front-end to RRDs.

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.

You can find the code at https://github.com/indygreg/collectd-carbon
