## Saving Diamond Metrics into InfluxDB
Diamond is a metrics collection and delivery daemon written in Python.
It is capable of collecting cpu, memory, network, i/o, load and disk metrics.
Additionally, it features an API for implementing custom collectors for gathering metrics from almost any source.

Diamond started supporting InfluxDB at version 3.5.
## Configuring Diamond to send metrics to InfluxDB
Prerequisites: Diamond depends on the [influxdb python client](https://github.com/influxdb/influxdb-python).
InfluxDB-version-specific installation instructions for the influxdb python client can be found on their [github page](https://github.com/influxdb/influxdb-python).
