Hi all. I just set-up my first self-hosting server with NextCloud, Immich and a VPN server. I was wondering if there is a tool or layer of tools which would help me monitor my server and the services including running stats, resource usage stats, system logs, access logs, etc?

I read that Grafana Loki along with Prometheus could possibly help me with this. I just wanted to ask that - should I explore these two tools or do we have some other and better(suiting to my needs) tools? Please recommend Open Source tools only. Preferably Docker, or Linux based otherwise. Thank you :))

      -1 for Netdata. I used it for a bit, but the configuration is not very intuitive and the docs for alerts were basically “rest of the fucking owl”, at least for the non-cloud version. I ended up just switching to Glances which is pretty boneless but it’s easy.

      Though for OP I’d probably recommend Prometheus.
