netdata is suddenly reporting 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable like every day
We run netdata to have a bit of insight into whats happening on the 10+ dedicated servers in Falkenstein. So far we have seen a 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable about once a month. Suddenly we get 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable like every day from different servers. Any ideas why that could be happening?

Is anyone using Grafana for your network monitoring?
Prometheus is a great way to go, however you need to invest time in writing all the alerts. This was a daunting task for us, because we have too many vendors and device types.. we instead went with zabbix, which is a free open source platform similar to Orion. Quite easy to setup. All the device templates for monitoring alerting are provided by the community. There is a grafana plugin which integrates with Zabbix, so you can build beautiful dashboards in grafana while using the polling and alerting logic in zabbix. You can also use grafana OnCall via a zabbix integration. Phase1: You could move to zabbix. Realize cost savings without investing time. Phase2: learn and work on moving things to Prometheus slowly. edit: added links and some rewording

Ascertaining how much traffic backups generate
Setup Zabbix (https://www.zabbix.com/) and use SNMP (search for a template for your switches, chances are someone has created one) to pull throughput data from the switchport your proxies are connected to. This will graph them for you on a continual basis, you can then setup some triggers (alerts) that will flag over-utilization (say >80Mbps) for you, can generate an email or SMS alert based on that or just see it in the dashboard.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Netdata and Zabbix you can also consider the following projects:
LibreNMS - Community-based GPL-licensed network monitoring system
uptime-kuma - A fancy self-hosted monitoring tool
cadvisor - Analyzes resource usage and performance characteristics of running containers.
VictoriaMetrics - VictoriaMetrics: fast, cost-effective monitoring solution and time series database
Munin - Main repository for munin master / node / plugins
