VPS for Monitoring Tools
Has anyone run Grafana and Prometheus on a small VPS for monitoring? I’m wondering how many resources these tools typically need and whether a basic configuration can handle long-term monitoring reliably.

I haven’t seen major spikes so far. I keep an eye on RAM and CPU usage, and the VPS has handled the monitoring workload steadily without issues.

Did you notice any resource spikes when Grafana and Prometheus started collecting more data? I’m curious how much RAM is needed for long-term monitoring.

I set up a VPS for monitoring tools https://www.hostzealot.com/south-america-vps with Grafana and Prometheus, and it's been running without issues for months while using very few resources.
