Cabot
Cabot is a self-hosted incident management platform and monitoring alert manager. It serves as a centralized system for receiving external monitoring data, managing on-call responder rotations, and dispatching incident notifications to administrators to ensure prompt resolution of system failures.
The platform provides a containerized monitoring interface and a REST API for programmatically creating and modifying monitoring data and incident reports. It coordinates the routing of critical system alerts and manages the scheduling of personnel for on-call rotations.
The system includes capabilities for infrastructure alert monitoring, such as tracking cloud metrics and triggering notifications based on predefined failure conditions. It also features role-based access control for both the web interface and API, alongside asynchronous background processing to handle monitoring logic and alert triggers.
