Mist is an open-source multicloud management platform that helps users manage their infrastructure through a single interface, addressing questions regarding resource management, user access, and cost optimization. The platform has evolved to use Telegraf and InfluxDB for data collection and monitoring while supporting custom metrics and workflows. Future enhancements planned for Mist include support for InfluxDB v2 and the introduction of a multicloud CLI.
