django-prometheus VS statsd_exporter

We have a Django Graphene app working, and are gather Prometheus telemetry to monitor our end points. We are leveraging the Django Prometheus Middle Ware and are able to get telemetry and view it via Grafana. This all works and is awesome.

Thank you in advance.

Prometheus stores data in a custom format and provides it's own metrics SDK's. Uriel Corfa has done the heavy lifting for us by writing an app which hooks into the Django middleware, ORM and cache layer and automatically exposes metrics generalized metrics. All you need to do is to install and configure django-prometheus.

It's part of the statsd_exporter.
