what happens to perfmon data if we switch to use the new metrics feature in 7.0 (statsD, collectD, mstats)? What happens to the dashboards and alerts? Can they work hand in hand or not?
Hi,
looks like metrics collection is more performing than a event collection, also you have 2 methods to collect the data.
look the documentation
