Description
Airflow submits metrics through a network connection defined by host and port. However, the existing backends also support using an UDS socket but there is no way to configure that at the moment.
A new [metrics] statsd_socket_path will be very useful to unlock this.
Use case/motivation
The motivation is to unlock the advantages of UDS sockets for this:
- Lower overhead
- Better security posture: local-only exposure, filesystem permissions
- No dropped packages
