• μMon: Stupid simple monitoring

  Https://collectd.org/ does the gathering (and writing to RRDTool database, if you so desire) part very well. Many plugins, easy to add more (just return one line of text) Still need RRD viewere but that's not a huge stack And it scales all the way to hundreds of hosts, as on top of network send/receive of stats it supports few other write formats aside from just RRD files. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• μMon: Stupid simple monitoring

  Why not use https://collectd.org/ which is in C and used by openwrt's luci already along with rrdtool, small in size, low on resource, and has so many plugins already? - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Post Mortem on Mastodon Outage with 30k users

  Then you will have same problems but now you can bother manufacturer about it! Also unless there is something horribly wrong about how often data is written, that SSD should run for ages. We ran (for a test) consumer SSDs in busy ES cluster and they still lasted like 2 years just fine The whole setup was a bit of overcomplicated too.

• CPU Performance of a docker minecraft java server on Raspberry Pi 4

  For metrics storage I'm using a Graphite database and the graph UI itself is Grafana. To get these I'm using the Debian repos they supply with mostly off-the-shelf configs. For collecting metrics from the Pi to send to Graphite I use collectd. It has a lot of off-the-shelf plugins you can use to grab metrics like CPU usage & load average, network in/out, memory stats etc. The Minecraft-specific stuff you can get...

• SchoolDude as a help desk / ticketing system.

  If you're not capable of hosting the solution yourself, there are solutions that have per-agent models that will cost you much less than SchoolDude, all while being substantially more feature rich. osTicket and FreshService are both great examples. A cloud hosted instance of osTicket is only $9/agent/month. FreshService is a more polished solution, but costs more at $19/agent/month. Source: about 3 years ago
