Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Start putting metrics into things and give him grafana to play with
  • We already have solid tools for dashboards, like Grafana or the more lightweight Netdata
  • Monitoring: Prometheus / Grafana
  • Using Prometheus to query Plex API and Grafana for dashboard visualization.
  • It's grafana. I found a premade dashboard that worked well enough so went with that for now.

Cons

  • Grafana to get a dashboard of usage data.
  • The unraid server runs a few docker containers for stuff like Plex, Mysql, Grafana.
  • I have installed Prometheus and Grafana but I had some hard time setting it up.
  • I also use DreamFactory alongside Home Assistant and Grafana when I need quick REST APIs over my history database.
  • We’re mostly Kubernetes + GitLab + Grafana right now.
