Unite Teams with Real-Time Visibility

Spaces provide complete physical isolation - separate infrastructure, billing, and configurations. Use Spaces for different organizations, customers (MSPs), or business units requiring complete separation. Rooms provide logical grouping within a Space - same infrastructure, shared billing. Use Rooms for teams, services, or incidents within your organization. Nodes can appear in multiple Rooms but only one Space.

Yes. Nodes can be added to multiple Rooms within the same Space, enabling cross-team visibility. For example, a database server might appear in both the Database Team room and the Production Infrastructure room. This flexibility supports different organizational views without data duplication.

Netdata Cloud receives alert transitions from all Agents and Parents, deduplicates identical alerts across nodes (e.g., same disk full alert from 100 servers becomes one notification), routes based on severity (Critical → PagerDuty, Warning → Slack), and applies flood protection during cascading failures. Room-based filtering ensures teams receive only relevant alerts.

Admin: Full control over Space/Room configuration, user management, and billing. Manager: Team and room management without billing access. Troubleshooter: Active investigation with access to all observability data and Functions. Observer: View-only access for customers, auditors, or management. Billing: Finance-only access to subscription and usage data without system visibility.

Netdata supports OIDC, Okta, and SAML for single sign-on. SCIM v2 enables automated user provisioning and group sync from identity providers. Group-based role mapping automatically assigns Netdata roles based on LDAP/AD group membership - eliminating manual user management as teams grow.

Yes. MSPs create one Space per customer with complete physical isolation. A single user account can have different roles across multiple Spaces (e.g., Admin in Customer A, Troubleshooter in Customer B). Switch between customer Spaces without separate logins. Each Space has independent billing for easy pass-through to customers.

Select any timeframe on any chart (≥15 seconds). Anomaly Advisor compares to baseline (4× window length), evaluates all available metrics across all nodes, and returns a filtered dashboard with the top 30-50 most changed metrics ranked by anomaly severity. Root cause typically appears in these results - eliminating needle-in-haystack searches across thousands of metrics.

Netdata’s AI assistance is available two ways: (1) Netdata Cloud AI Features (AI Troubleshoot, Ask AI, AI Insights) require Cloud subscription with AI Credits (10 free sessions/month included). (2) Model Context Protocol (MCP) runs on Agents/Parents, works with your own LLM (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini), available in free/open-source version. Both provide root cause analysis, capacity planning, and automated reporting.

The global time picker, node filter, and highlighted timeframe synchronize across all Rooms and Spaces. Highlight 14:30-14:45 on a chart in the Database room, switch to the Network room, and the same timeframe remains highlighted. This enables seamless cross-team investigation without losing context.

Netdata Functions provide browser-based access to: Processes (replaces top/htop), Network Connections (netstat/ss), systemd Journal (journalctl), systemd Services (systemd-cgtop), Block Devices (iostat), Network Interfaces (bmon), Mount Points (df), Containers/VMs (docker stats). All with the same per-second precision as CLI tools plus historical data and ML insights.

Data Sovereignty: All metrics and logs stay on-premises; only metadata in Cloud. Audit Logging: Complete trail of user actions and system changes. Access Control: Enterprise RBAC with SSO and SCIM. Certifications: SOC 2 Type 2 certified. Standards: GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS aligned by design. Logs: Forward Secure Sealing (FSS) for tamper detection.

Yes. Netdata Agents and Parents provide complete local dashboards with all observability features (metrics, logs, ML, alerts, Functions). Cloud adds: unified infrastructure-level dashboards, centralized alert dispatch, RBAC, SSO, multi-Space management, and managed AI features. Many organizations start with local dashboards and add Cloud as teams grow.

Business Plan: Predictable per-node pricing with volume discounts includes unlimited users, unlimited Spaces, unlimited metrics/logs, all RBAC roles, SSO/SCIM, and 10 free AI sessions/month. No per-user charges - team collaboration is included. P90 billing excludes daily spikes and top 3 days per month. See pricing page for details.

Traditional monitoring: fragmented tools (Grafana + Prometheus + ELK + SSH), manual dashboard building, query language expertise required, volume-based pricing, centralized architecture. Netdata: unified platform (metrics + logs + ML + AI), algorithmic dashboards, point-and-click analysis, predictable per-node pricing, edge-native architecture. Result: 80% MTTR reduction, 90% cost savings, every team member effective immediately.

Installation: 60 seconds (one-line command). First dashboards: Immediate (auto-generated). ML detection: 15 minutes (first anomaly results). Team onboarding: Hours (not weeks) - no query languages to learn. Full productivity: Days (not months) - zero-configuration automation eliminates setup burden. Junior engineers operate at senior-level effectiveness from day one.
