#KubeCon India booth S7 is where it's at! Thanks to those who stopped by yesterday.
Day 2 is just beginning and we're here to answer your questions about #observability and #Kubernetes monitoring, showcase cool demos, and send you off with #Grafana swag!
#Grafana hat mich gerade zum lachen gebracht.
Statt wie sonst in den Alerting Mails "[WARNING]", steht da jetzt "[WARNINGWARNINGWARNINGWARNING]" xD
Questions for #fediverse #SysAdmin folk who run #prometheus and #grafana on multiple #aws accounts:
Do you use a single Prometheus server or do you have one for each account?
How do you handle auto scaling EC2 servers which could change IPs at any time?
Is it possible for servers to push rather than get pulled from?
Please share any setups that could be relevant and boost far & wide!
Thanks in advance!! 
SSL-Zertifikate überwachen mit Grafana, InfluxDB und Telegraf
Die meisten Entwickler kennen das: Man kümmert sich um zig Dinge gleichzeitig – und dann ist plötzlich wieder irgendein SSL-Zertifikat abgelaufen. Na hoppla!
Um genau das zu vermeiden, habe ich mir ein kleines Setup gebastelt, mit dem ich meine Zertifikate automatisch überwachen kann – visualisiert in Grafana und gespeist durch InfluxDB und Telegraf.

Freezer Monitoring: Because Ice Cream Is a Dish Best Served Cold - [Scott Baker] wrote in to let us know about his freezer monitor.

On weekend I managed to connect all my selfhosted services that support it to the #Keycloak #SSO (single sign on).
Namely #Mastodon #Peertube #NextCloud #FreshRSS #Matomo and #grafana
Why to bother with such complication for apps serving only a couple of users?
First it's quite easy nowadays.
And second, because I want to get rid of passwords and just use #passkeys .
This is one of many examples showing that good apps should just focus on one task and just use standards to cooperate with other apps focusing on other tasks.
Peertube for example focuses on videos, not user management. I am very OK that they don't support passkeys, because they implemented OpenId Connect standard to allow me use Keycloak for better login options.
On the other hand, I am quite sad that SSO is often the one feature, that is proprietary and reserved only for paying customers. SSO is not for huge corporations anymore. It's also usefull for us, selfhosters with couple of users.
Is your company looking for a keen self-hoster with plenty of #Linux experience? I grew up with #RaspberryPi and have picked up many skills along the way including #React, backend JavaScript (#NodeJS) and #Docker. My current obsession is monitoring all the things with #Grafana, #PRTG and #Prometheus. I’m based in the UK but open to primarily English-speaking roles in Germany, too. Currently wrapping up my Advanced Software Development degree but eager to continue learning! Boosts appreciated :D
Do you like Grafana dashboards? Me too!
Do you enjoy creating them? Me neither!
Here's my latest experiment in using AI to handle the tedious work: digging through data and creating panels.
For this, we used Open Air Quality data loaded into a ClickHouse SQL database.

Basically going from never having used Grafana before to being a pro, thanks to Mastodon 4.4 
Well, I have used it occasionally before with some pre-made dashboards, but I had to make these ones myself, since I didn't find anyone else who had made a dashboard for the brand new 4.4 stats yet.
What it looks like to move your Mastodon account to 
#GoToSocial on #OpenBSD from a #Victoriametrics + #Grafana point of view.
Next to move, the Pixelfed account.

New blog post!
In which I once again talk about LXD. In this episode I migrate my monitoring services to LXD, move LXD storage to ZFS, and realize I have made a serious acoustic mistake.
Heute nacht gab es eine kleine Umstellung bei den RSS und ATOM Feeds, sollte aber niemand bemerkt haben. Wenn jetzt noch der Admin der Stadt #schwabischhall aufhören würde mit seinem #grafana beständig in unseren Feed zu hämmern, wäre der Server glücklicher :D
Edit: Dashboard 109, it-infrastruktur-raum #daslogsiehtalles

Score! Managed to hook the cluster at home up to #Grafana #cloud over #OTLP for shipping #traces 
. Next up:
* Figure out how to do a better presentation in Grafana
* Optimize OTEL collection deployment, work out all the issues etc
Then the real fun begins. As I have two WIP packages to bring out:
* One for @reactphp 's filesystem
* And one for Bunny
Both of those need to be refined, but with Shawn Maddock's (https://github.com/smaddock) initial push in this direction and help
Made it to an in-person tech meetup for the first time in a while! My buddy Marylia from a few jobs back is presenting for Toronto tech week #grafana #opentelemetry #techTO
