netdata

Netdata in this MCP server provides real-time, per-second metrics collection and visualization for infrastructure and applications. It exposes a live monitoring interface via the Netdata Docker image, offering dashboards, alarms, and a REST-like API for metrics. You can access per-node health, system metrics, and application-specific charts, and you can integrate Netdata dashboards into your own tooling or dashboards for quick insights across multiple servers.

Prerequisites:

• Docker installed and running on the host

Installation steps:

1. Ensure Docker is installed
   • macOS/Linux: https://docs.docker.com/get-dstarted/
   • Windows: https://docs.docker.com/desktop/
2. Pull and run the Netdata container: docker run -i netdata/netdata
3. Access the Netdata UI in your browser at http://localhost:19999 (default port)
4. Optional: configure volumes for persistent storage and enable any required permissions per the Netdata docs

If you need to customize, you can pass environment variables or mount a config directory as documented by Netdata.

Tips:

• The default Netdata container exposes a web UI on port 19999; map ports if running behind a reverse proxy.
• For long-running monitoring, consider mounting a persistent data volume and configuring Netdata alarms and integrations via its channels.
• Review Netdata's documentation for configuring plugins, alarms, and dashboards to tailor the monitoring to your environment.
