Grafana is an open source analytics and monitoring solution with a focus on accessibility for metric visualization. You can use Grafana to create, monitor, store, and share metrics with your team to keep tabs on your infrastructure. Grafana is very lightweight and does not use a lot of memory and CPU resources.
Deploying the Grafana Marketplace App
The Linode Marketplace allows you to easily deploy software on a Linode using the Linode Cloud Manager.
Log in to the Cloud Manager and select the Marketplace link from the left navigation menu. This displays the Linode Compute Create page with the Marketplace tab pre-selected.
Under the Select App section, select the app you would like to deploy.
Fill out all required Options for the selected app as well as any desired Advanced Options (which are optional). See the Configuration Options section for details.
Complete the rest of the form as discussed within the Getting Started > Create a Linode.
Click the Create Linode button. Once the Linode has provisioned and has fully powered on, wait for the software installation to complete. If the Linode is powered off or restarted before this time, the software installation will likely fail. To determine if the installation has completed, open the Linode’s Lish console and wait for the system login prompt to appear.
Follow the instructions within the Getting Started After Deployment section.
Software installation should complete within 2-5 minutes after the Linode has finished provisioning.

Getting Started after Deployment
Access Your Grafana Client
Now that your Grafana Marketplace App is deployed, you can log into Grafana to access all of its monitoring and visualization features.
Open a browser and navigate to your Linode’s IP address and port
3000, for example,http://192.0.2.0:3000/. By default, Grafana will listen to port3000.Note
The Grafana Marketplace App will install and enable the UFW firewall allowing TCP traffic on port3000.Viewing Grafana’s log in page, enter in
adminas the username and the Grafana password you set in the Grafana Options section of the Cloud Manager, as the password. Click on the Log In button.
Once you are logged into Grafana, complete your configurations by adding a data source, creating dashboards, and adding users.
NoteCurrently, Linode does not manage software and systems updates for Marketplace Apps. It is up to the user to perform routine maintenance on software deployed in this fashion.
