Prometheus and Grafana are two popular open-source tools that can be used to monitor Linux server. Prometheus can be used to collect and store metrics data, while Grafana can be used to visualize the data. Both tools are easy to use and have a wide range of features. Prometheus is particularly useful for collecting data from multiple sources and for storing it in a central location. Grafana is great for visualizing data and making it easy to understand.
