#I assume some features are locked to using the cloud?

I was about to check the top for the various devices and only <local> appears in my child/parent.

I'll keep looking to see if there is a feature to enable etc

Thanks

yes top/logs/dashboards are cloud features

dashboard can work without it too, without Cloud it is possible to have 1 custom dashboard (stored on the browser’s IndexedDB under netdata-cache).

#

@stiff wharf if you can't use any function without Cloud - you are using old Netdata version.

I'll be having my boss man organize a tech demo for our consortium and I know these questions will come up due to safeguarding our metrics (trying to avoid the SolarWinds fiasco)

probably one important point, if you think Netdata Cloud would be a better option due to the features it brings

irrespective of using Netdata Cloud or not your metrics are always on-premises - at your Netdata Agent(s) - even if you use Netdata Cloud we don't store them centrally, when you access Netdata Cloud we will query the required agents to bring you the date to the dashboard

Yeah I do like the model, and it offers a lot for itself as an agent, which is where I feel this would outdo a few other vendor options

Does netdata support things like snmp devices as part of its stack or is it geared purely on netdata

We have a need to monitor just about everything and we're not cloud hesitant, our entire stack sits in Azure

#

I'm purely doing this out of homelab needs but saw the potential for enterprise

#

Hopefully I'll have them send off a vendor demo request

#

We're talking 40 sites, approximately 6000 client devices and about 140 services

#

We are leveraging Sentinel (at a cost) rn

Nedata has collector built for SNMP but this is an old one and a bit outdated - https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/collecting-metrics/generic-collecting-metrics/snmp-devices

we've recently started advising users to use the prometheus SNMP exporter which is much easier to setup and using our prometheus endpoint collector you can scrate it with Netadata

Plugin: go.d.plugin

SNMP Exporter for Prometheus. Contribute to prometheus/snmp_exporter development by creating an account on GitHub.

#

we will be doing some improvements on this path of SNMP exporter, so stay tuned 🙂

that's good stuff as always

Because you use freebsd/opnsesnse package which is always few releases behind kekw

90% of my machines are debian but I didn't click on the thingies on the right, the first screen on Top tab on my homelab setup is showing "you need to log in" so I guessed it wrong

#

also I build my package for freebsd so I'm not behind :p
