How do you monitor your server containers, disks, load…?
Do you use an easy-to-use web interface? Do you do everything via SSH? Or maybe you’ve got a more complicated setup?
I want to change my setup and I’m looking for new ideas, I’ve been using Cockpit for some years and some of the plugins are really outdated (ZFS for example) and others are completely broken (docker-compose).

My own server? YOLO
At work? Grafana, KOBS, Victoria Metrics, Jaeger, OpsGenie, …
This is the first time I’ve heard of Victoria Metrics. It looks like it has a similar use case as Prometheus, is that correct? If so, what made you or your team choose one over the other?
IIRC it had better performance than Prometheus. We also ditched Elasticsearch in favor of ClickHouse to keep up with log ingestion.
I can second that. We had some really good experiences with ClickHouse and its performance. If it fits the bill, it’s a very nice piece of software.
Thanks for the info! Looks pretty cool I’ll have to check it out
