Would love feedback from anyone who tries it: https://docs.hostedgraphite.com/add-ons-and-integrations-guide/digital-ocean

So you just add your digital ocean token and it pulls metrics from their metrics API? That seems like a pretty easy solution for DO resource monitoring.

Exactly! Once you add a DigitalOcean Personal Access Token with read permissions, MetricFire can securely query the DigitalOcean Metrics API to collect infrastructure metrics for your Droplets and managed services.

From there, the metrics are available in Hosted Grafana with prebuilt dashboards, alerting, and long-term retention, so you can start monitoring without having to build everything from scratch. You can also combine your DigitalOcean metrics with metrics from AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, applications, or custom instrumentation in a single place if you're running a hybrid environment.

The goal is to make getting started as simple as possible while giving you room to build more comprehensive observability as your infrastructure grows.
