Axiom destination plugin

Axiom is a cloud-based platform for collecting, analyzing, and visualizing telemetry data in real time. It allows users to ingest and store large volumes of data from various sources, including logs, metrics, and traces and provides advanced analytics and visualization capabilities for gaining insights into system performance, application behavior, and user experience. The Axiom destination plugin in Calyptia Core enables you to integrate your telemetry data with the Axiom platform, allowing you to transmit your data to Axiom for further processing and analysis. With the Axiom Destination Plugin, you can configure your Calyptia Core pipeline to send your data to Axiom through HTTP, letting you control the format and structure of your data.
