Netdata

App in the BluixApps catalog

What it is

Netdata is real-time, per-second infrastructure monitoring — auto-discovers metrics from your system, applications, containers, and services without configuration. 1-second resolution, beautiful dashboards, ML-powered anomaly detection, all running on a single agent with minimal overhead.

For sysadmins who want immediate visibility into "what's happening right now" on their servers, Netdata is the fastest-to-value monitoring tool.

What it's for

  • System monitoring — CPU, RAM, disk, network at 1-second resolution
  • Container monitoring — Docker / Kubernetes auto-discovery
  • Application monitoring — Nginx, Postgres, Redis, MySQL, MongoDB auto-monitored
  • Anomaly detection — ML-based outlier detection on metrics
  • Free fleet monitoring — Netdata Cloud aggregates multiple agents

Who it's for

  • Sysadmins wanting instant per-server visibility
  • DevOps engineers monitoring fleet of VPS / containers
  • SREs triaging incidents with second-level metric resolution
  • Hosting providers giving customers visibility into VPS health
  • Solo developers monitoring side-project servers

Why teams pick Netdata over alternatives

  • Zero configuration — auto-discovers everything; works immediately
  • GPL-3.0 — fully open
  • 1-second resolution — Prometheus default is 15s; Netdata is 15× more granular
  • Minimal overhead — <1% CPU, <100 MB RAM per agent
  • Built-in dashboards — no Grafana setup required
  • ML anomaly detection — alerts before threshold breaches

Integrations

  • Auto-collectors — 800+ integrations for apps / services / system
  • Container — Docker, Kubernetes auto-discovery
  • Cloud — AWS, GCP, Azure metrics integration
  • Alerting — Slack, PagerDuty, Telegram, Discord, email, custom webhook
  • Prometheus — Netdata can export to or consume Prometheus
  • Netdata Cloud — fleet aggregation across multiple agents
  • Database backends — local TSDB, or stream to InfluxDB / Prometheus

Notable users & community

  • 73k+ GitHub stars (top observability project in OSS)
  • Used by Netflix, IBM, Cisco for monitoring at scale
  • Active Discord community
  • Backed by Netdata Inc. with sustainable cloud offering
  • Frequent releases with strong roadmap

Tips & operations

  • Use Netdata Cloud for fleet — single-agent view is great; Cloud aggregates multiple
  • Disable unused collectors — auto-discovery may pull metrics you don't need; trim for performance
  • Configure ML carefully — anomaly detection needs baseline; tune sensitivity over time
  • Alert routing — set up channels per team / severity
  • Persistent local storage — Netdata stores TSDB locally; volume mount for retention
  • Pair with Loki/Prometheus — Netdata for real-time, Prometheus for long-term retention
