Collectd is similar to Netdata in that it is a logging program that collects system metrics. It is implemented as a unix-style daemon, with lots of plugins.

Linode uses collectd to provide users with system status dashboards.

As you can deduce from the name, collectd is a daemon, so it runs as a background process.

The way you use it is to edit the configuration file, set up any plugins, and then let the daemon service run.
