[Telegraf](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf) is a plugin-driven server agent written by the folks over at [InfluxData](https://influxdata.com) for collecting & reporting metrics. This chart runs a DaemonSet of Telegraf instances to collect host level metrics for your cluster. If you need to poll individual instances of infrastructure or APIs there is a `telegraf` chart that is more suited to that usecase.
The command deploys a Telegraf daemonset on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The [configuration](#configuration) section as well as the [values.yaml](/values.yaml) file lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.
> **Tip**: List all releases using `helm list`
