I’m curious as to which tools and technologies you all are using to keep track of all those services you are deploying, whether it be resource tracking, network traffic, logs, traces, or uptime.
As a bonus question, how have you organized your network or your services to reduce the overhead of implementing observability?
Bezsel, simple and easy, constantly having new features added.
If you’re wanting to go hard in the paint here, Grafana has a great OSS stack with Grafana, Loki, Mimir, Tempo, and Alloy.
Uptime Kuma if I want something to alert me (still trying to decide between ntfy & gotify)
Home Assistant is also checking some stuff
Watchdog to reboot my Raspberry Pi Zeros when they fall off the wifi
Smokeping for a general, long term feel of the network, which might answer your bonus question?
Did you ever decide on Ntfy vs Gotify?
Not yet 🙂
Both services work well, but the (Android) app is also a consideration… Gotify appears to keep losing the connection, but as I have different alerts going via different routes I need to sit down and spend some quality time with these, which I don’t have at the moment.
