Which self hosted website uptime monitoring tool are the cool kids using nowadays?

#askfedi #uptime #monitoring #opensource #selfhosting

#FreeBSD recommendations for #monitoring #alerting #observability sought. I have a much loved collectd + riemann that needs an upgrade.

Target is about 10 servers and 200 jails.

No apache2 /php, nagios or clones thereof please. I don’t have these in my stack today, and my expertise in managing them is about 20 years out of date. I prefer to avoid JVM stuff but I’m not violently against it.

Doesn’t have to be in ports yet ( like sensu.io/ server) if it’s in a friendly language.

I recently wrote a #monitoring dashboard for myself, and figured I'll share the experience: asylum.madhouse-project.org/bl…

Code dump is at the bottom. The dashboard itself is a fairly straightforward #React app in truly awful JS. It's fed by #Riemann, which is itself fed by my own collector I wrote in #fennel.

The blog post isn't about the tools, but about the thought process that led me to have my dashboard look and function like it does. More monitoring stuff will follow, as time permits.
