A lot of the things we do these days relies on having an Internet connection

Now in the early days you just paid for access to the Internet and wanted an alert if it went down

But now you can purchase packages with different upload and download speeds, so it's not just about monitoring reliability, but also consistency

In other words, are you getting the service you're paying for or are there times during the day when there are slowdowns or dropouts?

Now an interesting open source combination of monitoring tools that's available for free is Prometheus and Grafana

So in this video we go over how to configure Prometheus and Grafana to monitor your Internet connection, when you're using Docker
