Metricsink — telemetry that waits out the network
A telemetry-ingest service for edge and embedded devices that buffers, batches, and forwards metrics over a long-lived HTTPS stream.
- For
- Edge and embedded-device teams handling unreliable connectivity
- Worth noticing
- Per-device buffering lasts up to 24 hours while the sink is unavailable.
Field notes
The homepage presents a narrow reliability model rather than a general analytics platform: devices maintain a long-lived HTTP/2 connection, while the service buffers and batches records when the downstream sink cannot accept them. Its example uses newline-delimited JSON with device, timestamp, temperature, and signal-strength fields. The page names two European regions and four delivery targets, while distinguishing the stable ingest API from beta delivery adapters.
