-We are very excited to see people adopting Kamon as their monitoring tool for reactive applications and, of course, we
-want to keep growing both in users base and features. According to our site metrics, the most visited section is the one
-describing our [StatsD module], that made us think, what can we do to make it easier for people to get started
-with Kamon and StatsD?, well, that's an easy question to answer: build a package containing all the required
-infrastructure and plumping, and let the users just focus on what cares to them, their apps and their metrics. That's
-why today we are publishing a Docker image with all that you need to get started in a few minutes!
-
-
-The image contains a sensible default configuration of StatsD, Graphite and Grafana, and comes bundled with a example
-dashboard that gives you the basic metrics currently collected by Kamon for both Actors and Traces. There are two ways
-for using this image:
-
-
-### Using the Docker Index ###
-
-This image is published under [Kamon's repository on the Docker Index](https://index.docker.io/u/kamon/) and all you
-need as a prerequisite is having Docker installed on your machine. The container exposes the following ports:
-
-- `80`: the Grafana web interface.
-- `8125`: the StatsD port.
-- `8126`: the StatsD administrative port.
-
-To start a container with this image you just need to run the following command:
-
-```bash
-docker run -d -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -p 80:80 -p 8125:8125/udp -p 8126:8126 --name kamon-grafana-dashboard kamon/grafana_graphite
-```
-
-If you already have services running on your host that are using any of these ports, you may wish to map the container
-ports to whatever you want by changing left side number in the `-p` parameters. Find more details about mapping ports
-in the [Docker documentation](http://docs.docker.io/use/port_redirection/#port-redirection).
-
-
-### Building the image yourself ###
-
-The Dockerfile and supporting configuration files are available in our [Github repository](https://github.com/kamon-io/docker-grafana-graphite).
-This comes specially handy if you want to change any of the StatsD, Graphite or Grafana settings, or simply if you want
-to know how tha image was built. The repo also has `build` and `start` scripts to make your workflow more pleasant.
-
-
-### Using the Dashboard ###
-
-Once your container is running all you need to do is open your browser pointing to the host/port you just published and
-play with the dashboard at your wish. We hope that you have a lot of fun with this image and that it serves it's
-purpose of making your life easier. This should give you an idea of how the dashboard looks like when receiving data
-from one of our toy applications:
