Write data with output plugins

Output plugins define where Telegraf will deliver the collected metrics. Send metrics to InfluxDB or to a variety of other datastores, services, and message queues, including Graphite, OpenTSDB, Datadog, Librato, Kafka, MQTT, and NSQ.

For a complete list of output plugins and links to their detailed configuration options, see output plugins.

In addition to plugin-specific data formats, Telegraf supports a set of common data formats available when configuring many of the Telegraf output plugins.
