Do you seriously think that this has changed from end of 2023 that it justifies creating another thread with this click-bait title? The content is shorter than the title..

I currently use Netdata but was wondering if there are any other suggestions / implementations recommended by others.
For basic network/server/service moniting you can look at librenms ( https://www.librenms.org/ ).
A while back i moved from cacti (https://www.cacti.net/) to librenms and havnt looked back.

This is the way. It is easy to monitor servers when you are the only user.
When there are other users, they will alert me by knocking on my dorm door or leaving a message in Windows Live Messenger.
Likewise, I have UptimeRobot and several other scripts to monitor other people's servers that I rely on.
If it's broken for more than 60 minutes, I alert them on Slack, and they'll reluctantly fix it.
To be fair, that's just so because of the large font in the title. For posterity, using the same font for the content, it would be (marginally) longer than the title.
I mostly don't - found limited value in it. Though that is me a selfhoster - I could see LES provider gang ending up with different conclusions.
If I need to I try to aim for the grafana ecosystem. Its not the easiest (netdata is point & shoot) but grafana is a case of all roads lead to rome whether you need dashboard, metrics, logging, spans etc

I've always wanted to try feeding Riemann off Grafana data but haven't had the time to try it yet.
Or wait, you want the other way around, take data from Grafana and send events to Riemann?
That's actually kind of moot since Grafana does not generate or store data itself, it just reads from other sources such as Influx, Graphite, SQL or whatever. It would make way more sense to just get the data from the actual source.
I think there already is a Riemann client for Graphite, I'm almost sure a customer used one a while ago.

Yeah, I said Graphana data but I meant data destined for Graphana. Make it the collection point for all my Collectd instances so it sees everything and forwards it on. Seems like such a cool system.

Collectd can write to both Influx and Graphite, so I suggest you just pick one and let that be the collection point for everything.
Just setup a Graphite, let collectd feed it and read from it with both Graphana and Riemann.

Netdata seems to be the standard, stick it to it and you'll be fine!

Hetrixtools have been serving well for a couple of years.
