I have a Raspberry Pi running Docker and a number of containers. I plan on adding another Pi soon. Curious what folks are using for a dashboard to monitor performance of all your hosts and containers. I was thinking of deploying Grafana for this but am curious what others use.

    I really enjoy practicing with Datadog - though it gets quite expensive really quickly and is quite overkill for 6-7 hosts, many VMs, and 20ish containers.

    We use it at work, but monitoring isn’t my team’s responsibility so I try to understand how it all fits together by practicing with it at home.

    I think Datadog should have a homelabber tier (above the free 5 physical hosts) that allows people to tinker. I honestly think it would net them more customers.

      Ahhh, Datadog, the sleazy used car salesmen of the observability market. Seriously, they’re hucksters.
