Overview:
Meteor is a plugin-driven agent designed for collecting metadata from various data sources, services, and message queues. With support for both source plugins to extract metadata and sink plugins to send metadata to third-party APIs, Meteor offers a flexible and customizable solution for managing metadata workflows.

- No Dependency: Meteor is written in Go and compiles into a single binary with no external dependencies.
- Extensible: Its plugin system allows for easy addition of new sources and sinks.
- Ecosystem: Meteor has a wide array of service plugins to extract metadata from popular services.
- Customizable: Users can add their own processors and sinks to tailor Meteor to their specific use cases.
- Runtime: Meteor can operate within VMs or containers with minimal memory usage.
