This was a small weekend personal project to try out Grafana visualisation tool for a test Hyper-V server. InfluxDB was used for storing the time series database. Since performance counter values are based on a series of event happening over time, it is the best one for what it does. The extra tool NSSM was also needed for running influxdb as a service on Windows machine. To make life easier, I also used the PowerShell module called Influx to feed the data to the Influx database.
