I stood up grafana at work, and I make dashboards to keep my role secure.

Everyone uses my shitty little dashboards :)

Jev and ollaya are on my list to eventually add. I'm running ollama through an RTX 3080 with 10 gigs of RAM. Just because it's what I had lying around. I was mostly using it for gaming but it works for local model use. I'm also planning on installing Hermes in a bit once the log manager project is done, but that's going to take some careful tinkering because I'm technically underpowered for it. I'm probably just going to have some gate checks up to make sure nothing loads during a gaming session.

My main goal is to completely get off the frontier models if possible because I have concerns about the environmental impacts, especially. As a shameless pirate I mind intellectual theft less, but I really do disagree with the environmental impact, especially when a optimized local model plus a bit of scripting and filtering. Does the job 90% of the time

But we'll see, I'm still tweaking everything, but I think I'm about 90% done with the log normalizer to do most of the heavy lifting act on the logs programmatically, to keep the context window for my local models as optimized as possible.

It's definitely been a good fun learning project

Oh, one of the first things that I implemented was a hallucination checker. If it cites any data that's not actively in one of the corpus I've supplied, it automatically gets flagged and filtered out. But most of what I do can be handled with internal documentation and material I explicitly provide.

No auto updates thanks. 😅 I've just reset all my compose files to pin versions today after an unintended mariadb update cost me hours to repair. I'll look into dockhand though. Was unimpressed at portainer's announcement that new version wont have a community edition. Portainer is really just an 'at a glance' view for me since i try to do all the compose and troubleshooting stuff in terminal. Wud will probably become a thing i just review every few weeks to make sure i dont get too adrift from latest.

I ought to look into a unified dashboard as i dont have easy visibility or things like disk usage, sheduled backup success etc that id like to see alongside the container status and beszel activity graphs.

Im still quite new to it all though.

What's not to like?

Still alive & still maintained, and less resources than Grafana & Prometheus...
