Started building my entire infrastructure monitoring solution from scratch!

- Powered by FreeBSD!
- Using Jails and seperation of duty:
- One Jail running Grafana and Prometheus
- One Jail running Netbird Wireguard to connect my infra securely
- One Jail running Nginx and Certbot

All ZFS based for backup / snapshots and rollback options.

Routed and NAT'ed via a seperate dedicated pf jail.

All working fine, I get first metrics and can start slowly improve from here.

Todo:
- Alerts via AlertManager
- Log-Ingestion via promtail
- Log analysis with Grafana Loki
- Adding remaining servers via WireGuard Mesh VPN
- Adding another Jail for Uptime-Kuma

Target is about 10 servers and 200 jails.

No apache2 /php, nagios or clones thereof please. I don’t have these in my stack today, and my expertise in managing them is about 20 years out of date. I prefer to avoid JVM stuff but I’m not violently against it.

Doesn’t have to be in ports yet ( like https://sensu.io/ server) if it’s in a friendly language.

What lightweight monitoring option can I run that will give me historical stats on memory and cpu for both the host and each container? I'm trying to track down a random timeout (suspecting caused by cpu spikes) at exactly 2am on some nights.

Should run as a docker container. Thanks!
