Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No—unless you are maintaining legacy code already using this package. The library is abandoned (last release 2017-09-01, last commit 2020-09-04) and likely incompatible with modern Django versions. For new projects, use actively maintained alternatives or direct integration with statsd via a maintained client library.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires a running statsd server and Django application setup
- Low install friction with a single runtime dependency (statsd).
- However, the package is abandoned—last release was 2017-09-01 and last commit 2020-09-04—so it receives no active maintenance or security updates.

What it is and what it does
django-statsd-mozilla is a Django middleware and utility library that connects your Django application to a statsd server for real-time metrics collection. It sends application performance data to statsd, which aggregates and forwards metrics to monitoring systems. The package provides decorators and context managers to instrument custom code sections.
The library depends only on the statsd client library and integrates as Django middleware or through explicit instrumentation calls. It was last released 2017-09-01 with a final commit 2020-09-04, meaning it receives no active maintenance or security updates and may have compatibility issues with recent Django versions.
Use it for
- Track request latency and throughput metrics in a Django application connected to a statsd aggregator.
- Monitor database query performance and cache hit rates by instrumenting ORM and cache operations.
- Collect custom application metrics via decorators on view functions or service methods.
- Feed real-time application telemetry into a monitoring system for alerting and capacity planning.
