Have been working on my Grafana dashboard recently and am thinking about what else I could add. So far, I have:
- CPU usage and temperature
- Memory usage
- Network usage
- Backrest daily backup status
- SMART status of drives
- CPU and memory usage of containers Anything else that you find useful? I have a few other ideas, but am curious what others have up. Is everything on one scrollable dashboard, or do you have it organized across multiple?


I have a series of Tasmota esp32’s with Temp/Humidity/Barometric Pressure sensors around the house, attic, garage and outside. I scrape it into influxdb and have a Grafana dashboard setup.
How much does each sensor wind up costing, esp32 and all? That sounds really interesting. I think I have an esp32 laying around that I haven’t gotten to playing with yet.
I found a pack of 5 on Amazon for $20, for each of the sensors and the esp32’s… so $40 for 5. Probably cheaper in Ali or similar. The only negative is they need some calibration. The ones from Adafruit are better quality and already calibrated, but much more expensive.
Thats really cool.
Is there any reason you chose grafana over home assistant?
I’m just setting uo a similar system myself, but I never even had the idea to use grafana for it
