​Ultimately, the context is "Capacity Planning."  So we're actual talking
about collecting statistics.  So instead of talking about collectd,
Nagios/Icinga, etc..., why aren't we actually talking about what most of
these tools use?  [1]

I.e., RRDTools and its RRD files

​Just saying, I'd focus on RRD and similar solutions, under the objective's
context, "Capacity Planning."
