Custom pollers and dashboard-side hacks holding your monitoring together? I rebuilt the observability stack behind one of my network automation demos, moving to gNMI streaming telemetry with gnmic, NATS JetStream, Prometheus, and Alertmanager, each container owning exactly one job in the pipeline.
The data pipeline design was inspired by the https://github.com/gnp-stack/gnp-stack project, credit to that team for the original idea.
Watch the full walkthrough from Cisco Live Las Vegas 2026, including a live demo of an interface failure cascading into an automated alert, plus resources and a free sandbox to try it yourself, in the video description. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eq642x54lM4
