LibreNMS has a very different purpose from your other monitoring options - it’s network monitoring at a large scale, not a generic data storage / data visualization platform. If your goal is to monitor your selfhosted servers and services, this is going to be an odd fit and you’ll probably struggle against it.

Better fits for an out-of-the-box monitoring setup would be CheckMK or Zabbix.

These other “stacks” for monitoring are a little more bespoke. To cover it briefly:

Grafana is popular because it is a fantastic visualization platform. The backend data storage is pluggable.

There are many options for data storage, all that are a little different. Graphite, is push-based and the Statsd compatibility makes it super simple to push your own metrics into it. Prometheus is pull-based. And InfluxDB is more of a time-series database.

Conjure is what did it for me. I kept running into trouble with Clojure vs ClojureScript vs Babashka projects with vim. Just couldn’t get the config to work consistently when switching between projects.

The eval period was about a day.
