Question #255583 on Graphite changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/255583

    Status: Open => Answered

Jason Dixon proposed the following answer:
It depends entirely on your application. This is why many people choose
to run a statsd server. Not only does it perform aggregation and gives
you a lot of value-added statistical metrics, but the client libraries
support non-blocking udp submissions.

If your apps are submitting directly to Carbon, they're subject to
blocking behavior and timeouts if your Carbon listener(s) stop accepting
for some reason.

I have applications that implement the metrics library and report to graphite. If the carbon process terminated or the host became unavailable what is the expected impact on the application?
