I was looking at loki+grafana. is prometheus a replacement for loki in this setup and is it preferred?
No, they serve different purposes. Loki is for logs, Prometheus is for metrics. Grafana helps to visualize data from both.
What about InfluxDB? I hear that mentioned around Grafana a lot.
InfluxDB is just a storage. If you have a service that saves metrics to InfluxDB (IIRC, Proxmox can do that), Grafana can read it from there. Grafana can aggregate data from many sources, Prometheus+Loki+InfluxDB+even queries to arbitrary JSON APIs etc.
