Introduction

Collectd-web is a sleek, intuitive web interface for Collectd — the robust resource monitoring daemon. It replaces Collectd's bundled testing frontend with a proper, user-centered experience for browsing RRD metrics across one or many hosts.

What you get

• A responsive dashboard for system statistics
• RRD graph rendering powered by Collectd's own data files
• A standalone Python web server (no Apache required)
• First-class multi-host support

When to use it

Collectd-web is ideal when you already run Collectd and want a lightweight, self-hosted way to view its data without setting up a full TSDB stack. If you need long-term storage, alerting, or distributed querying, pair it with Prometheus, Graphite, or InfluxDB instead.
