+**netdata** is a system for **real-time performance and health monitoring**!
+It provides **unparalleled insights, in real-time, with interactive web dashboards**, of everything happening on the system it runs, including supported applications.
-**[Check what our users say about netdata](https://github.com/firehol/netdata/issues/148)**.
-
-Thank you!
+_netdata is designed to permanently run on all systems (**physical** & **virtual** servers, **containers**, **IoT** devices), without disrupting the applications running on them._

-**Real-time performance monitoring, done right!**
-
-This is the default dashboard of **netdata**:
- - real-time, per second updates, snappy refreshes!
- - 300+ charts out of the box, 2000+ metrics monitored!
- - zero configuration, zero maintenance, zero dependencies!

+`Oct 4th, 2016` - **[netdata v1.4.0 released!](https://github.com/firehol/netdata/releases)**
-**netdata** is a highly optimized Linux daemon providing **real-time performance monitoring for Linux systems, Applications, SNMP devices, over the web**!
+ - the **fastest** netdata ever (with a better look too)!
+ - improved **IoT** and **containers** support!
+ - **alarms** improved in almost every way!
+ - new plugins: softnet netdev, extended TCP metrics, UDPLite, NFS v2, v3 client (server was there already), NFS v4 server & client, APCUPSd, RetroShare
+ - improved plugins: mysql, cgroups, hddtemp, sensors, phpfm, tc (QoS)
-It tries to visualize the **truth of now**, in its **greatest detail**, so that you can get insights of what is happening now and what just happened, on your systems and applications.

+
+ - **Stunning interactive bootstrap dashboards**<br/>2 themes are provided: dark, light
+ - **Blazingly fast visualization**<br/>responds to all queries in less than 0.5 ms per metric, even on low-end hardware
+ - **Highly efficient data collection**<br/>collects thousands of metrics per server per second, with just 1% CPU utilization of a single core on modern hardware
+ - **Sophisticated alarming**<br/>supports dynamic thresholds, hysteresis, templating, multiple notification methods
+ - **Extensible**<br/>you can monitor anything you can get a metric for, using its Plugin API (anything can be a netdata plugin, BASH, python, perl, node.js, java, Go, etc)
+ - **Zero configuration**<br/>auto-detects everything, out of the box it can detect up to 5000 metrics per server
+ - **Zero dependencies**<br/>it is even its own web server, for its static web files and its web API
+ - **Zero maintenance**<br/>you just run it, it does the rest
+ - **Embeddable**<br/>it can run anywhere a Linux kernel runs (even IoT) and its charts can be embedded on your web pages too
+ - **Custom dashboards**<br/>that can be built using simple HTML (no javascript necessary)
+ - **scales to infinity**<br/>requiring minimal central resources!
-- **Stunning bootstrap dashboards**, out of the box (themable: dark, light)
-- **Blazingly fast** and **super efficient**, mostly written in C (for default installations, expect just 2% of a single core CPU usage and a few MB of RAM)
