statistics = yes

- `statistics` enables/disables ACLK related statistics and their charts. You can disable this to save some space in the database and slightly reduce memory usage of Netdata Agent.
56
- `query thread count` specifies the number of threads to process cloud queries. Increasing this setting is useful for nodes with many children (streaming), which can expect to handle more queries (and/or more complicated queries).

-Currently we are in process of switching ACLK to brand new technical stack called ACLK-NG. To choose your implementation, change the `aclk implementation` setting in your `netdata.conf` (accepted values `ng` or `legacy`).
63
-
64
-Before changing this value, check the desired implementation is available (determined at build time) by running `netdata -W buildinfo`. Following lines indicate which ACLK implementations are available:
65
-
66
-```
67
-Features:
68
- ACLK Next Generation: YES
69
- ACLK Legacy: YES
70
-```
71
-
72
-To verify which ACLK implementation Netdata uses, visit the `/api/v1/info` endpoint on your local dashboard and check the `aclk-implementation` key.
73
-
74
-New Netdata Cloud features will be implemented on top of ACLK-NG only. ACLK Legacy is therefore kept as a fallback in case some users have issues.

77
-> Note: ACLK Legacy will be removed in following releases!
78
-> Update your ACLK configuration to ACLK-NG to prevent any disruptions.

-### Improvements of ACLK-NG over Legacy are:
82
-- No dependency on custom patched `libmosquitto` (no bundling of libraries). Which should remove obstacles many GNU/Linux distribution package maintainers had trying to provide Netdata with Cloud support
83
-- No dependency on libwebsockets
84
-- Lower latency and higher throughput
85
-- More up to date, new features for Netdata Cloud are currently developed on top of ACLK-NG first
