+
+Netdata's **distributed, real-time monitoring Agent** collects thousands of metrics from systems, hardware, containers,
+and applications with zero configuration. It runs permanently on all your physical/virtual servers, containers, cloud
+deployments, and edge/IoT devices, and is perfectly safe to install on your systems mid-incident without any
+preparation.
+
+You can install Netdata on most Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, and more), container platforms (Kubernetes
+clusters, Docker), and many other operating systems (FreeBSD, macOS). No `sudo` required.
+
+Netdata is designed by system administrators, DevOps engineers, and developers to collect everything, help you visualize
+metrics, troubleshoot complex performance problems, and make data interoperable with the rest of your monitoring stack.
+
+People get addicted to Netdata. Once you use it on your systems, there's no going back! _You've been warned..._

+
+> **[Latest release](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/releases/latest): v1.29.0, February 2, 2021**
+>
+> The v1.29.0 release of the Netdata Agent is a maintenance release that brings incremental but necessary improvements
+> that make your monitoring experience more robust. We've pushed improvements and bug fixes to the installation and
+> update scripts, enriched our library of collectors, and focused on fixing bugs reported by the community.

+
+Here's what you can expect from Netdata:
+
+- **1s granularity**: The highest possible resolution for all metrics.
+- **Unlimited metrics**: Netdata collects all the available metrics—the more, the better.
+- **1% CPU utilization of a single core**: It's unbelievably optimized.
+- **A few MB of RAM**: The highly-efficient database engine stores per-second metrics in RAM and then "spills"
+ historical metrics to disk long-term storage.
+- **Minimal disk I/O**: While running, Netdata only writes historical metrics and reads `error` and `access` logs.
+- **Zero configuration**: Netdata auto-detects everything, and can collect up to 10,000 metrics per server out of the
+ box.
+- **Zero maintenance**: You just run it. Netdata does the rest.
+- **Stunningly fast, interactive visualizations**: The dashboard responds to queries in less than 1ms per metric to
+ synchronize charts as you pan through time, zoom in on anomalies, and more.
+- **Visual anomaly detection**: Our UI/UX emphasizes the relationships between charts to help you detect the root
+ cause of anomalies.
+- **Scales to infinity**: You can install it on all your servers, containers, VMs, and IoT devices. Metrics are not
+ centralized by default, so there is no limit.
+- **Several operating modes**: Autonomous host monitoring (the default), headless data collector, forwarding proxy,
+ store and forward proxy, central multi-host monitoring, in all possible configurations. Use different metrics
+ retention policies per node and run with or without health monitoring.
+
+Netdata works with tons of applications, notifications platforms, and other time-series databases:
+
+- **300+ system, container, and application endpoints**: Collectors autodetect metrics from default endpoints and
+ immediately visualize them into meaningful charts designed for troubleshooting. See [everything we
+ support](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/collectors/collectors).
+- **20+ notification platforms**: Netdata's health watchdog sends warning and critical alarms to your [favorite
+ platform](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/monitor/enable-notifications) to inform you of anomalies just seconds
+ after they affect your node.
+- **30+ external time-series databases**: Export resampled metrics as they're collected to other [local- and
+ Cloud-based databases](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/export/external-databases) for best-in-class
+ interoperability.
+
+> 💡 **Want to leverage the monitoring power of Netdata across entire infrastructure**? View metrics from
+> any number of distributed nodes in a single interface and unlock even more
+> [features](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/overview/why-netdata) with [Netdata

+and builds all dependencies, including those required to connect to [Netdata Cloud](https://netdata.cloud/cloud) if you
+choose, and enables [automatic nightly
+updates](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/packaging/installer#nightly-vs-stable-releases) and [anonymous
+statistics](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/anonymous-statistics).
+
+```bash
+bash <(curl -Ss https://my-netdata.io/kickstart.sh)
+```
+
+To view the Netdata dashboard, navigate to `http://localhost:19999`, or `http://NODE:19999`.
+
+### Docker
+
+You can also try out Netdata's capabilities in a [Docker
+container](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/packaging/docker/):

+
+### Other operating systems
+
+See our documentation for [additional operating
+systems](/packaging/installer/README.md#have-a-different-operating-system-or-want-to-try-another-method), including
+[Kubernetes](/packaging/installer/methods/kubernetes.md), [`.deb`/`.rpm`
+packages](/packaging/installer/methods/packages.md), and more.
+
+### Post-installation
+
+When you're finished with installation, check out our [single-node](/docs/quickstart/single-node.md) or
+[infrastructure](/docs/quickstart/infrastructure.md) monitoring quickstart guides based on your use case.
+
+Or, skip straight to [configuring the Netdata Agent](/docs/configure/nodes.md).
+
+Read through Netdata's [documentation](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs), which is structured based on actions and
+solutions, to enable features like health monitoring, alarm notifications, long-term metrics storage, exporting to
+external databases, and more.
+
+## How it works
+
+Netdata is a highly efficient, highly modular, metrics management engine. Its lockless design makes it ideal for
+concurrent operations on the metrics.
+
+![Diagram of Netdata's core
+functionality](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1153921/95367248-5f755980-0889-11eb-827f-9b7aa02a556e.png)
+
+The result is a highly efficient, low-latency system, supporting multiple readers and one writer on each metric.

+## Is it any good?
+
+Yes.
+
+_When people first hear about a new product, they frequently ask if it is any good. A Hacker News user
+[remarked](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3067434):_
+
+> Note to self: Starting immediately, all raganwald projects will have a “Is it any good?” section in the readme, and
+> the answer shall be “yes.".
+
+So, we follow the tradition...
