Every 30 seconds (by default), Beats collect a _snapshot_ of metrics about itself. From this snapshot, Beat computes a _delta snapshot_; this delta snapshot contains any metrics that have _changed_ since the last snapshot. Note that the values of the metrics are the values when the snapshot is taken, **NOT** the _difference_ in values from the last snapshot.

If this delta snapshot contains _any_ metrics (indicating at least one metric that has changed since the last snapshot), this delta snapshot is serialized as JSON and emitted in the Beat's logs at the `INFO` log level. Here is an example of such a log entry:
