If you missed the first, be sure to check it out <a href="https://hackmd.io/J1x1WA-bR0a8gQeAmVdLFw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>.</p> <p>Geth is short for Go-Ethereum and is the official implementation of the Ethereum Client in Go. Currently it’s one of the most widely used implementations and a core piece of infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem.</p> <p>With this proof of concept I wanted to showcase how easy it really is to gather data from any Prometheus endpoint and visualize them in Netdata. This has the added benefit of leveraging all the other features of Netdata, namely it’s per-second data collection, automatic deployment and configuration and superb system monitoring.</p>https://www.netdata.cloud/blog/how-to-monitor-the-geth-node-in-under-5-minutes/Mon, 13 Sep 2021 00:00:00 +0000https://www.netdata.cloud/blog/how-to-monitor-the-geth-node-in-under-5-minutes/<!--truncate--> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="../wp-archive/uploads/2022/03/How-Geth-affect-the-CPU-charts-1200x629.png" alt="" class="wp-image-16229"/></figure> <p>This piece is a blog post version of a workshop I gave at <a href="https://ethcc.io/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">EthCC</a> about monitoring an Ethereum Node using Netdata.</p> <p><strong>Disclaimer:</strong> Although we use Netdata, this guide is generic. We talk about metrics that can be surfaced by many other tools, such as Prometheus/Grafana or Datadog.</p> <p>The contents are as follows:</p> <ul><li class="">Introduction to Ethereum Nodes</li><li class="">What is Netdata</li><li class="">How to monitor a system that runs go-ethereum (Geth)</li><li class="">How to monitor go-ethereum (Geth)</li></ul> <h2 id="ethereum-nodes">Ethereum Nodes</h2> <p>Running a node is no small feat, as it requires increasingly more and more resources to store the state of the blockchain and quickly process new transactions.</p>
