Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Prometheus Fundamentals (Lesson-01)
$ wget https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/releases/download/v1.7.0/node_exporter-1.7.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz $ tar -xzvf node_exporter-1.7.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz

Best way to monitor disk space, RAM in remote servers and get alerts when full?
The Prometheus node_exporter can provide this information, doesn't require root. You could run it as a systemd user unit if you don't have root.
-
Best Course/Learning Path for mastering Prometheus and Grafana
I personally find it best to learn through experimentation. Start with reading a bit about Prometheus and Grafana through their docs, and then familiarise yourself with setting up a local Prometheus + Grafana instance either locally or with docker using docker-compose, along with something to generate /metrics endpoint for Prometheus to scrape from such as a custom Prometheus exporter in Python or using Node Exporter.
-
Linux Traffic Monitoring
Your best bet might be to fork node_exporter to get you more verbose socket stats: https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/blob/master/collector/sockstat_linux.go
-
Tool to monitor disk space
I use Grafana + Prometheus + Node Exporter.
- Is there a dashboard of sorts that can keep track of my linux-based computers and VMs to that I can easily see if any of them have updates or are running low on storage and et cetera?
-
Would SNMP present less of a load than SSH to get interface metrics from older cisco 3K series switches?
Crazy idea, can't NX devices run Docker? I wonder if the node_exporter would work.
-
Questions about Kubernetes
Kubernetes itself will not notify you, the way I've seen people do this, is to use something like kube-state-metrics or node_exporter, export that to Prometheus (or preferrably VictoriaMetrics because Prometheus is terrible IMO), and then setup alarms on that with alertmanager or equivalent, or just look at dashboards regularly with Grafana. Realistically I recommend only setting alerts on disk usage and application/database latency. CPU and memory utilization isn't a great metric to alert on a lot of the time.
-
How to log system usage: RAM, CPU, over a long time to detect which component is slowing down?
You may setup node exporter and collect metrics with prometheus for example. Its not quite "simple" way, but still you may find it useful.

Uptime monitoring (~1000 urls)
You could use prometheus as a monitoring tool, blackbox_exporter to "export" the urls to prometheus, alertmanager for notifications, and grafana for nice gui dashboards (and maybe also notifications).

Alertmanager with SNS Topic
I found this other example below from this repo https://github.com/prometheus/alertmanager/issues/2559, but it is neither working.
-
Ultra Monitoring with Victoria Metrics
vmalert: executes a list of the given alerting or recording rules against configured data sources. For sending alerting notifications vmalert relies on configured Alertmanager. Recording rules results are persisted via remote write protocol. vmalert is heavily inspired by Prometheus implementation and aims to be compatible with its syntax
-
Can Prometheus act similar to OPC A&E server?
Yes, I believe you can do all of what you're looking for without a UI. The alertmanager api has the ability to register receivers as well as to poll for alerts, silence them, etc: https://github.com/prometheus/alertmanager/blob/main/api/v2/openapi.yaml

Customize Pushovert alerts ?
I found it, unfortunately it doesn't help.

Is this a terrible way of getting timezone awareness into my Prometheus alerts?
Prometheus recently added native support for time ranges in the alerting config https://github.com/prometheus/alertmanager/issues/876

It took almost a full day, but I finally got a decent homelab diagram :D Feedback is most welcome!
