Prometheus, Node Exporter & Grafana Setup on Linux | Complete Monitoring Stack with systemd

Description

In this video, I’ll show you how to set up a complete monitoring stack with Prometheus, Node Exporter, and Grafana on Linux. We’ll make each component run as a systemd service, so they auto-start after reboot and stay resilient. What you’ll learn: - Install and configure Prometheus on Linux - Deploy Node Exporter to expose system metrics - Connect Prometheus with Node Exporter - Install and configure Grafana - Add Prometheus as a data source in Grafana - Import community dashboards for visualization This setup is perfect for anyone looking to monitor CPU, memory, disk, and network usage on Linux servers. These monitoring tools are widely used in DevOps, Cloud, and Kubernetes environments. 📌 Don’t miss: If you’re new to systemd services, check out my earlier video: https://youtu.be/7HpbUplD5iM?si=NuN5qoKg9auaDsH5 Prometheus, Node Exporter & Grafana Setup on Linux ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Timestamps ⏰ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 - Introduction 00:38 - Why monitoring is essential 00:57 - Monitoring stack overview 01:18 - Install Prometheus on Linux 02:47 - Configure Prometheus as a systemd service 04:17 - Install Node Exporter 05:03 - Configure Node Exporter as a systemd service 06:12 - Connect Node Exporter with Prometheus 08:19 - Install Grafana on Linux 10:01 - Add Prometheus as Grafana data source 10:58 - Import Grafana dashboard for Node Exporter 12:08 - Wrap-up & Conclusion For 1:1 mentorship, consultations, or career guidance, you can book a session with me here: https://topmate.io/nikhil_kumar811/ 🔗 Watch Related Playlists: - Kubernetes: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-K2rw28HIwZVMo9CtbV0wDu548SN0h9Y - Github Actions: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-K2rw28HIwYfq7SqYnBzAxlUhcYP7ldM - Ansible: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-K2rw28HIwaavCXTYEWF4mP431KmKtEY - AWX: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-K2rw28HIwbTtijpBMrOaHdnWGXdOkYa - AI: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-K2rw28HIwaSvmI8oFeSQDl4cVTdxaGQ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ Connect with me 👋 ▬▬▬▬▬▬ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kumar-nikhil811/ Website: https://techinik.com Medium: https://medium.com/@kumarnikhil811 #prometheus #grafana #monitoring #monitoringtools #devops #cncf #opensource #systemd #linux
