It was a comprehensive course specifying the grafana set-up, monitoring & alerting with integration to multiple data sources.

I bought the course from the eleasticsearch section, and the exercise never worked, the program provided to generate data does not work: ShoeHub.DataGenerator.exe, it marks an error, I checked the course and lesson questions, but in general all the questions are no answer, very bad experience.

Muy bueno el curso, solo que lo enfocan mucho a Windows, solo hace falta que explique otras fuentes de datos, y solicitudes https a otros sites.

Either my environment is obsolete or the teacher is using an outdated version! Beside, he moves too fast! Making it impossible to follow the screen!

The sound is a little distorted, some of the content is spoken in monotone. The lab looked like it would take forever to do since I don't have a working Java environment. The data source used is something I am not familiar with and he makes it seem so effortless. When I use my data sources, it is not so simple because I didn't set them up. So how do I use Grafana to understand the Prometheus options that I've been given, for example? Having said that, it is giving a good overview of the Grafana interface.

Hi, Interesting course to discover grafana but sections "Using Grafana" and "Integration with DataSources" were difficult to follow for a beginner.

Its a decent course for Beginners. The author does get straight to the point without wasting a lot of time and I really appreciate that. However, lot of topics are not really covered in Depth and those who have beginner to intermediate experience with Grafana will not find it to be too useful. Would have been great if the topics were covered in depth, exploring multiple configuration options in detail but overall I am happy.

Great course covering Grafana but some versions are outdated by this time. InfluxDB has mostly changed to Flux query types so much of the query information in this course is no longer valid pertaining to InfluxDB. Otherwise, great explanation and examples.

Very well explained and easy to follow. The exercises and commands worked out of the box!!! This is the way to do telemetry easily with Grafana and Graphite

So far to me in looks very superficial. Today's version is much different. You are running an old one. This turs this course to absolutely useless.

I spent more than 18hs to finish this course, each time I have to go back to check other videos . I think this course is more for advance level not for beginner as title mentioned...

ITA: Il corso sembra interessante, però non solo la traduzione automatica fatta dal sito è pessima, ma sono presenti molte nozioni che sono deprecate e non più valide con la versione attualmente presente. ENG: The course seems interesting, but not only the automatic translation done by the site is bad, but there are many notions that are deprecated and no longer valid with the version currently present.

It mostly rattles on through the various features, which would be fine for the most part, but it also based on a very old version at this point.

It's a quite good course, it helps a lot I gotta say. But without the community answering the questions in the Q&A, it would be really difficult to go further the first sections, because of the knowledge gap the lecturer end up creating.
