Note that timers will be accepted with the `ms`, `h`, and `d` statsd types. The first two are timers and histograms and the `d` type is for DataDog's "distribution" type. The distribution type is treated identically to timers and histograms.
It should be noted that whereas timers in statsd expects the unit of timing data to be in milliseconds,
prometheus expects the unit to be seconds. Hence, the exporter converts all timers to seconds
before exporting them.
