Features
- Open-Source Monitoring Platforms - An open-source platform that tracks server hardware, uptime, and response times with real-time visualizations and alerting.
- Notification Dispatchers - Routes alerts through a configurable plugin system supporting email, Slack, Discord, and other channels.
- Alerting and Incident Management - Sends notifications through email, webhooks, Slack, Discord, and other channels when a monitored service changes state.
- RESTful Metric Agents - Ships a lightweight RESTful agent that exposes CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics from remote servers.
- Hardware Metric Collectors - Collects CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics from a lightweight agent installed on monitored servers.
- Public Status Pages - Generates customizable public status pages that display live uptime and health of monitored services.
- Infrastructure Metrics - Deploys a lightweight agent that exposes CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics via a RESTful API.
- Server Metrics - Collects CPU, memory, disk, and other hardware metrics from a lightweight agent installed on monitored machines.
- HTTP Endpoint Probes - Pings HTTP endpoints, ports, game servers, and SSL certificates periodically to verify availability and response times.
- Multi-Channel Alerting Engines - Notifies via email, Slack, Discord, Teams, Telegram, SMS, and other services when a monitor triggers.
- Polling-Based Health Monitors - Periodically sends HTTP, TCP, and game server probes to verify service availability and measure response times.
- Real-Time Metric Visualization - Displays live status indicators and response-time data for each monitored endpoint.
- Infrastructure Health Monitoring - Tracks CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics across servers using a lightweight agent for real-time hardware health.
- Self-Hosted Monitoring Suites - A self-hosted service that periodically checks HTTP endpoints, ports, and SSL certificates to verify availability and response times.
- Status Dashboards - Generates a public-facing dashboard that displays current uptime and health of monitored services.
- Status Pages - Displays real-time service status on customizable public pages with multiple theme options.
- Uptime Monitoring - Sends HTTP GET requests to a URL periodically and validates that the server returns a successful status code.
- Monitoring Maintenance Windows - Suppresses alerts during user-defined time windows to prevent false incident reports during planned downtime.
- Health Status Checkers - Queries the Docker API to report container status and health.
- Real-Time Performance Trackers - Monitors the status and performance of Docker containers in real time.
- Real-Time State Trackers - Tracks the status and performance of Docker containers in real time through the Docker API.
- Status Probes - Queries game servers like Minecraft and Source engine to report their online status and player information.
- Web Performance Scores - Measures website performance using Google Lighthouse to capture Core Web Vitals and scores.
- DNS Record Verification - Resolves DNS records for A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, and TXT types to confirm correct configuration.
- Game Server Query Implementations - Uses the GameDig library to query game server protocols and report online status and player counts.
- Certificate Expiry Tracking - Monitors SSL/TLS certificate expiration dates and sends alerts before certificates are due to expire.
- Game Server Probes - Uses GameDig to query game servers like Minecraft and Source engine for online status.
- Email Alert Notifications - Configures a server-wide SMTP connection and delivers alert notifications to any email address.
- Branding Customizations - Customizes the public page with a logo, colors, and other branding to match the organization's identity.
- Response Validation - Checks the response body against an expected string, regex, or JSON path expression to confirm correct content.

Star history
How this analysis was created: This summary and feature list were written by an AI model that read the project's README and public documentation pages. Each feature links to the documentation it came from; stars, license and language come straight from the GitHub API. The model does not read the source code, and the analysis is refreshed when the project is re-analysed. Learn more on our About page.
