Hi Pavan, Welcome -- that's great! You can either pick your own topic (like what you have proposed) or consider one of the ones we've published which were taken from our feature roadmap at https://s.apache.org/welcome_couchdb_gsoc2013 > I work with CouchDB and it is fantastic.

I have a partial fork at https://github.com/dch/couchdb/commits/metrics which allows sending the same statistics from the API /_stats to graphite, so you can see where the hooks are today. In discussing that commit, we decided it would be better if the destination would be pluggable. i.e. use folsom, graphite, librato or something else at your discretion and only need to write the extension module. I've had some thoughts about this but not come up with a working solution yet. What sort of additional metrics would you like to add? Or are you tempted by some of the other ideas? We'd love to have you onboard. Bob & I are both on IRC most of the time, so feel free to pop into #couchdb-dev again and have a chat. A+ Dave
