Netdata is a real-time system monitoring tool that enables you to get insights into your various systems and applications. In this tutorial, we will explain the steps to install Netdata on the Ubuntu Server latest version.
First, connect to your server with SSH as a user with sudo privileges, and update the system by running the following command:
sudo apt-get update
Netdata is available in the package manager known as apt. To install Netdata, run the following command:
sudo apt-get install netdata
Once the installation is done successfully, you access Netdata through your web browser. Type in your server's IP address or hostname provided with a default port number of 19999
to access the Netdata dashboard.
http://<Server-IP-Address>:19999/
You can set up your Netdata by running the sudo netdata-claim.sh
command. This command provides you with a unique URL that you can follow to register your installation and access advanced options.
With Netdata installed, you can now start monitoring your systems and applications with ease. It's that simple, and Netdata is an excellent tool that helps you visualize real-time system performance.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
