As a counterpoint: I have been rolling my own Grafana/Prometheus for many years for my startup and it's been pretty trivial

Same here. DataDog would cost me at least 10x.

How are you running it? On AWS? What’s your infra look like.

GCP with Docker Swarm, scheduled on the same node (n2-standard-4). Let me know if any other questions

Does "scheduled on the same node" imply you are running everything on one node?

Nope, just that Prometheus and Grafana are running together on the same node. My entire infrastructure is multi-node however.

How much data are you sending and ingesting?

I don't have any hard numbers but quite a bit. Everyday we process millions of background jobs, thousands of database queries per second, etc. and stats are collected and sent to Prometheus for all those.
