Oh definitely, but only if you are not interested in the visualization side.
I wanted the ability to quickly see the current & historical state of these and other metrics, not just configure alerts.
I’m also omitting the fact that I have collectors running inside different VMs on the same host. For example, I have Telegraf running on Windows to collect GPU stats.
Ah, yeah, that probably won't be enough for you then. Need Windows monitoring, and want the graphs—yeah, much bigger pain to get anything like that working via email.
