From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Netdata is great for monitoring
I tried it once the UI is very complicated.
This person gives a good run down of how to integrate NetData + Prometheus + Grafana to create a nice dashboard:
https://noted.lol/netdata-prometheus-and-grafana/
I am not much into those, but got into Netdata, it's really just a nice information portal which provides way more data than one can use, but they pretty much expose it so you can use it for your purposes. I have it on a few of my systems and like looking at it when they seem slow.
For what I have for my end though - I use Proxmox for my VM's and then use Portainer for a good rundown of what ports I have available to allocate. But then I also use docker compose files whenever I can so it's easier to update/deploy as needed.
