None could identify the root cause. As Costa later wrote:\n\n“*I couldn’t believe that monitoring systems provide so few metrics and with such low resolution, scale so badly, and cost so much to run.*”\n\nFrustrated, he decided to build his own monitoring tool, starting from scratch.\n\nThat decision led to countless late nights and weekends. It also sparked a fundamental shift in how infrastructure monitoring and troubleshooting are approached, both in method and in cost.\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\n### Most Energy-Efficient Monitoring Tool\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https://www.ivanomalavolta.com/files/papers/ICSOC_2023.pdf#gh-dark-mode-only\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"https://github.com/netdata/netdata/assets/139226121/7118757a-38fb-48d7-b12a-53e709a8e8c0\" alt=\"Energy Efficiency\" width=\"800\"/\u003e\n\u003c/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https://www.ivanomalavolta.com/files/papers/ICSOC_2023.pdf#gh-light-mode-only\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"https://github.com/netdata/netdata/assets/139226121/4f64cbb6-05e4-48e3-b7c0-d1b79e37e219\" alt=\"Energy efficiency\" width=\"800\"/\u003e\n\u003c/a\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\nAccording to the [University of Amsterdam study](https://www.ivanomalavolta.com/files/papers/ICSOC_2023.pdf), Netdata is the most energy-efficient tool for monitoring Docker-based systems.

fill:#f0f0f0,stroke:#333,stroke-width:1px,color:#333\n```\n\nWith each Agent you can:\n\n1. **Collect** – Gather metrics from systems, containers, apps, logs, APIs, and synthetic checks.\n2. **Store** – Save metrics to a high-efficiency, tiered time-series database.\n3. **Learn** – Train ML models per metric using recent behavior.\n4. **Detect** – Identify anomalies using trained ML models.\n5. **Check** – Evaluate metrics against pre-set or custom alert rules.\n6. **Stream** – Send metrics to Netdata Parents in real time.\n7. **Archive** – Export metrics to Prometheus, InfluxDB, OpenTSDB, Graphite, and others.\n8. **Query** – Access metrics via an API for dashboards or third-party tools.\n9. **Score** – Use a scoring engine to find patterns and correlations across metrics.\n\n\u003e
