  • lego

    Let's Encrypt/ACME client and library written in Go

  • If you're doing everything with public IPs, use letsencrypt to get your certs. I recommend lego.

  • Telegraf

    The plugin-driven server agent for collecting & reporting metrics.

  • If you don't feel like setting up and updating certificate for each of your servers, I like to use telegraf to get all my metrics to one place, preferably the same host as Prometheus so you can expose the metrics locally. Here are some references telegraf , output plugin. It has some limitations but work fine enough.

  • InfluxDB
