I’m deploying my NodeJS app + Postgres + Redis in an Ubuntu VPS. Postgres + Redis is running in Docker, whole app is behind an Nginx proxy.
Currently, to monitor, I use a mix of htop (to check server health), docker stats, tail nginx log.
Please recommend me a better way to monitor this (pulling all log & metrics into 1 source and show dashboard like Grafana or something).
I just want simple stats like nginx log, CPU &RAM load… Fancier metrics like Redis cache hit/miss rate, slow queries in Postgres is a bonus too.
Asked in self-host because most cloud options have those dashboard & log already.
