Overview

A self-contained Grafana demo environment. Clone it, run one command and open a browser: four production-style dashboards are already populated with realistic historical data, which makes it useful for demos, dashboard development and training.

Highlights

  1. HAProxy overview: three frontends, four backends and ten servers, with a server that occasionally flaps
  2. Telegraf Linux system metrics for two simulated web servers
  3. Kubernetes cluster overview: three nodes and around 32 pods across six namespaces
  4. PowerDNS Authoritative metrics via Graphite, including cache hit rates, latency and SERVFAIL storms
  5. Runs entirely in Docker with Grafana, VictoriaMetrics, InfluxDB and Graphite
