Hi,

I am looking for a solution to collect netflow/sflow data, store it in an InfluxDB and visualize it.

Any suggestions?

Perhaps this [blog](https://blog.sflow.com/2017/01/telegraf-influxdb-chronograf-and.html) could offer a guide of sorts? The post discusses how standard sFlow agents can provide Telegraf metrics to InfluxDB.

There’s also currently an [open issue](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/174) on GitHub for collecting and storing Netflow data.
