I'm curious as to which tools and technologies you all are using to keep track of all those services you are deploying, whether it be resource tracking, network traffic, logs, traces, or uptime.

As a bonus question, how have you organized your network or your services to reduce the overhead of implementing observability?

I use the Grafana stack but I do not self host it. It’s the only thing I use in the cloud with their free offering which is pretty generous and good enough for homelabbing. I have also recently transition away from Alloy to Vector, mainly to give that a try and because the configuration of Vector seems easier and somewhat more intuitive.
