 +===== Introduction =====
 +
 +Where as cacti uses a __pull__ mechanism to reach out and gather statistics which requires something to cache previous values until the cacti back-end is ready to get them.  Graphite on the other hand uses a __push__ mechanism which is much simpler.  It also means that as new xAP data elements are created they are automatically fed into your charts with zero additional work, unlike cacti which requires lots of extra effort for each new item you want to store and graph.
