In September 2025, delivered a new performance metrics input pathway for Telegraf that enhances system observability and capacity planning. Key features and outcomes: - Added Telegraf turbostat input plugin to collect system performance metrics via the turbostat utility. This enables unified performance data collection for CPU performance counters across AMD and Intel architectures. The implementation includes user-facing documentation, configuration options, and cross-architecture test coverage. - Commits reflect feature work: feat(inputs.turbostat): Add plugin (#17368) with hash d23c726667d024b7144eb2a9f5aa06a3b1bf3943. Impact and value: - Expands native observability by exposing system-level performance metrics in Telegraf, supporting more informed capacity planning and performance tuning. - Improves reliability through documented configuration and robust tests across AMD/Intel platforms, reducing onboarding time and risk for deployments. Technologies and skills demonstrated: - Go-based plugin development within the Telegraf architecture. - Integration of external system utility (turbostat) for metrics collection. - Cross-architecture testing (AMD/Intel) and end-to-end documentation. - Emphasis on reproducible commits and traceability (commit reference included).

May 2025 performance summary: Delivered quality and reliability improvements across two repositories, focusing on user-facing clarity, test stability, and startup resilience to reduce support load and improve deployment reliability.
