The **internal** ones are written in `C` and run as threads within the netdata daemon. 2. The **external** ones can be written in any computer language. The netdata daemon spawns these as processes (shown with `ps fax`) and reads their metrics using pipes (so the `stdout` of external plugins is connected to netdata for metrics collection and the `stderr` of external plugins is connected to `/var/log/netdata/error.log`). -To make it easier to develop plugins, and minimize the number of threads and processes running, netdata supports **plugin orchestrators**, each of them supporting one or more data collection **modules**.
