Those rrdtools based tools are quite efficient.
rrdtool is one of the gems in computing, much like MQTT Neo mentioned.

As for Prometheus, give it a shot, it's not that hard Smilie
But i think we already discussed that in past, as long as <insert monitoring> works for you, that is what is most important.

But sometimes drill down is necessary when problem is less obvious and cannot be deduced from graphs.

graphviz - rich set of graph drawing tools SYNOPSIS
This manpage has been written to fulfil the need of a centralized documentation presenting all available tools in the graphviz package. AVAILABLE TOOLS
Graph layout programs dot filter for hierarchical layouts of graphs neato filter for symmetric layouts of graphs twopi filter for radial layouts of graphs circo filter for circular layout of graphs fdp filter for symmetric layouts of graphs All of the filters work with either directed or undirected graphs, though dot is typically used for directed graphs and neato for undi- rected graphs. Note also that neato -n[2] can be used to render layouts produced by the other filters.
