How to monitoring a server's resources/performance

I've been giving a task to monitor an Amazon ec2 instance's resources/performance. I do not have access to the Amazon Control Panel/Dashboard but I'm allowed to install free software on the ec2 that can track the stats. I know you need to pay for indpeth/custom charts/graphs in the Amazon Control Panel, is this maybe the best approach for accurate stats or are the preferable free software that can track the following stats.

You may want to use a good, basic monitoring service like New Relic. They have both server and application monitoring available that, together, could give you the stats you list. Your first and third items are more server-centric, while your second bullet is specific to the application you're running (i.e. Apache, NGINX, Postfix, etc.).

Here is a list of other monitoring options.
