Self-hosted alternatives to Netdata Cloud
Netdata Cloud is the hosted service for Netdata, an open source monitoring agent that collects per-second metrics from servers and applications, with alerts and anomaly detection. One listed app does its main job and runs in your own Cloudflare account.
Each answer comes from the app’s README and source code, compared with the features Netdata Cloud describes on its own site.
Netdata Cloud features, app by app
| Feature | CF-Server-Monitor |
|---|---|
| Agent on each node reporting CPU, memory, disk and network metrics in real time | Yes |
| Per-second metrics collection | Partly |
| 800+ auto-discovered integrations for applications, containers and databases | No |
| Dashboards that build themselves from the collected metrics | Partly |
| Machine learning anomaly detection on every metric | No |
| Alerts with email, Slack, PagerDuty, Teams, webhooks and mobile push | Partly |
| Long metric retention on the nodes | Partly |
| One view across many nodes | Yes |
Server monitoring with a reporting agent on each machine, a live dashboard, seven-day history and offline alerts
- What a Netdata Cloud user would miss
- It has no application/container collectors and anomaly detection, and covers per-second collection, generated dashboards, paging integrations and long retention only in part.
- What it adds
- It also has a report-only agent that can run without root, monthly traffic tracking and server expiry reminders.
- Yes Agent on each node reporting CPU, memory, disk and network metrics in real time. A Go agent on each server reports CPU, memory, disk, network, load and uptime to the Worker.
- Partly Per-second metrics collection. Live CPU, memory and network values every 2 seconds by default over WebSocket while a dashboard is open; full metrics every 60 seconds.
- No 800+ auto-discovered integrations for applications, containers and databases. System metrics only; no application, database or container collectors.
- Partly Dashboards that build themselves from the collected metrics. Bar, ring, table and map views; no dashboards generated from detected applications.
- No Machine learning anomaly detection on every metric. Fixed thresholds only; no anomaly detection.
- Partly Alerts with email, Slack, PagerDuty, Teams, webhooks and mobile push. Offline, resource, monthly traffic and expiry alerts through Telegram, SMTP email, custom webhook and chat apps; no PagerDuty, Slack or Teams presets.
- Partly Long metric retention on the nodes. History charts go back seven days.
- Yes One view across many nodes. One dashboard for all servers, and several Workers can be aggregated.
