Use grafana agent (https://grafana.com/docs/agent/latest/) on the 
machines, which embeds various prometheus exporters like node_exporter 
which can write to a remote prometheus store (which can be prometheus 
itself, or something like mimir), as well as promtail, which allows for 
sending logs to a loki (which is a log collection/search system).

Grafana (the company) offer a cloud-hosted mimir+loki if you don't want 
to run them yourself; but I find it pretty to easy to run inside of 
Kubernetes.
