Grafana + Prometheus on Docker: Build a Full Homelab Monitoring Stack
Hey,
New post on IGNA Online — this one is for anyone running a homelab who wants actual visibility into what their machines are doing.
We walk through building a full monitoring stack with Prometheus, Grafana, Node Exporter, and cAdvisor — all containerized, all running from a single docker compose up -d.
What you get: per-core CPU graphs, memory breakdown, disk I/O, container-level stats, alerting, and multi-host support. The setup takes about 10 minutes and costs nothing beyond hardware you already own.
