Hey Guys,
What’s the alternative to StatsD?
I saw that it can be used to record statistics, like channel join or whatever comes to mind. However, since it’s written in Nodejs, I don’t want to use it.
I thought adding PromEx would be enough, but I don’t know how to modify it, to record our custom stuffs.
Like how do increment a count, showing how many users are currently connected live in a dashboard?
Also how to do product metrics, like how many joined, new sign ups, etc?
Where Next?

It seems,
:telemetrydoes the same things, but better. (Telemetry — PromEx v1.7.1)I have so much to learn!!
(Telemetrics Reporter).

Telemetry was introduced to BEAM languages as a unified way to handle telemetry events from applications/libraries. If you take a look at good libraries (phoenix, ecto), all of them use telemetry to dispatch events from the system.
