Any recommendations for network traffic monitoring? (alien.top)

I have a self hosted setup where all of my software it running in docker containers using portainer. Since I have a limited monthly bandwidth, I was hoping to find a software that will not only allow me to monitor my overall network usage, but will also allow me to see the individual network usage per container. Is there any software like that?

not sure about any existing solutions, but you could assign specific ports to containers and record network traffic on your router.

NtopNG might work for you..

Maybe even observium

this would allow you to log the network usage per docker container, and you can then use grafana's integration function to get total data sent/recieved over a period of time.

this was just using a quick google search
