About Netdata

What Netdata does, and why teams deploy it.

Netdata delivers real-time, per-second monitoring for servers, containers, and applications with automatic detection of thousands of metrics out of the box. Its lightweight agent requires zero configuration to start collecting system, network, storage, and application metrics, making it one of the fastest ways to gain visibility into infrastructure health.

With built-in anomaly detection powered by machine learning, preconfigured alert templates, and beautiful real-time dashboards, Netdata helps teams identify and resolve performance issues before they impact users. It supports streaming metrics from distributed agents to a central parent node, making it suitable for monitoring entire fleets of servers from a single interface.

DIY vs ManageStacks

What running Netdata yourself looks like — and what it looks like with us.

DIY self-hosting

  • Install Netdata agents on every server and configure parent-child streaming by hand
  • Set up persistent storage tiers for per-second metrics retention on the parent node
  • Write and maintain alert configurations for hundreds of auto-detected metrics
  • Build your own high-availability setup for the central monitoring node
  • Handle Netdata version upgrades across parent and child agents without losing historical data

On ManageStacks

  • Subscribe through your AWS, Azure, or GCP marketplace
  • Netdata parent node deploys with tiered storage, alerting, and ML anomaly detection pre-configured
  • Install lightweight child agents on your servers — they stream to the managed parent automatically
  • Hundreds of preconfigured alert templates ship out of the box — customize as needed
  • Rolling version upgrades handled by us; child agents update independently

Real-time dashboards with per-second granularity appear immediately. Tune alert thresholds and anomaly detection sensitivity for your workload.

Who this is for

Built for teams that want Netdata to just work.

Infrastructure teams monitoring server fleets

You have 10-200 servers across cloud and on-prem and need per-second visibility with zero-config metric collection. Netdata auto-detects everything — CPU, memory, disks, network, containers, databases.

DevOps engineers wanting instant observability

You need monitoring up and running in minutes, not days. Netdata's zero-config auto-detection and preconfigured alerts get you from install to dashboard in under five minutes.

SRE teams needing anomaly detection

You want ML-powered anomaly detection that learns your infrastructure's baseline and alerts on deviations automatically, without manually defining thresholds for thousands of metrics.

Compliance & compatibility

What we handle, what Netdata runs on.

Compliance & operations

  • TLS-encrypted agent-to-parent streaming
  • All metric data stays in your cloud region — no telemetry sent externally
  • GDPR data-residency — parent node confined to your chosen region
  • Role-based dashboard access via reverse proxy authentication
  • OS-level and Netdata security patches applied during your maintenance window
  • Automated daily backups of metric databases and alert configurations

Compatibility

Version
Latest Netdata stable (validated before each upgrade)
Runtime
C agent with embedded web server on containerized infrastructure
Dependencies
Tiered storage (dbengine) for metric retention, optional Prometheus remote-write export
Min. resources
2 vCPU / 4 GB RAM (parent node); child agents use ~100 MB RAM each

FAQ

Common questions about Netdata on ManageStacks.

Can I use ManageStacks-hosted Netdata as a central monitoring hub for my other servers?
Yes. ManageStacks hosts the Netdata parent node, and you can install lightweight Netdata agents on your other servers to stream metrics into the central instance for unified monitoring.
How much historical data does Netdata retain on ManageStacks?
ManageStacks configures tiered storage so you get per-second data for recent history and progressively aggregated data for longer retention periods. Exact retention depends on your plan and the number of metrics collected.
Does ManageStacks support Netdata's anomaly detection features?
Yes. The ML-based anomaly detection runs natively within Netdata. ManageStacks provisions sufficient resources to ensure the anomaly detection models train and run smoothly alongside normal metric collection.
