11 months ago 👋 Hi @cboudereau,
This has been discussed a bit in the past. And @zamazan4ik also started down the path in https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector/pull/14369.
I think since the discussion previously was focused in a PR, this GH issue could serve as a central feature request.
It's something we're not opposed to we just haven't sorted out the best way to host community supported resources.
I think we can keep this issue open to continue the conversation and track the demand from it.
It would be nice to have official dashboards using internal metrics / log to bootstrap quickly a vector setup on production.
I published on grafana labs useful dashboards for vector.dev pipeline monitoring and vector.dev host_metrics for node exporter dashboard.
Dashboards are available here : https://github.com/cboudereau/vector-community/.
The repository is called community like in opentelemetry collector.
Let me know where can I push those dashboards on your hand and / or how do you manage community contribution for dashboard ?
Dashboard are usually located on a live demo folder with a very little use case, a docker-compose and dashboards. Here is an example of a live vector demo I made for instance including happy an error path (the demo is sure too big but I can limit the example to an app + vector + grafana + loki + mimir) : https://github.com/cboudereau/consul-demo/tree/main/service-discovery/agents
If you think that such demo in interesting, where shall I put the demo or at least be referenced ?
A note for the community
Use Cases
quickly a vector setup on production
Attempted Solutions
dashboards: https://github.com/cboudereau/vector-community/ live demo : https://github.com/cboudereau/consul-demo/tree/main/service-discovery/agents
Grafana Labs dashboards: vector drop-in solution for node exporter: https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/19650-node-exporter-vector-host-metrics/ vector monitoring: https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/19649-vector-monitoring/
Proposal
Can we officially push such dashboards and/or demo here ? If yes where could we put dashboards and live demo ?
