From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I haven't used sar in over 10 years. I used to use it to monitor resource usage of jobs that I was running while I was at work. Now that I look back, I was using isag (no longer maintained) to generate reports for me.
I would think it should be possible to package ksar in an appimage or docker container - but I don't know if one exists.
But - there is a newer option:
This is part of the sysstat package - no need to install anything else, and no java. sadf allows you to make graphs that you can view in your browser. Check the man file for sadf for more information. (Can't comment any further on this since I haven't used it.)
