Re: [tlug] What do you use for simple monitoring?

Seems like you should be using whatever you use to manage the service itself for monitoring and triggering events on failure (or any service life-cycle event). I think all of the popular ones support this. The emailing part makes sense to be in a script which is triggered by the service manager, though. If you aren't using a service manager, I would recommend doing so! My 2 yen: for things that don't need to scale, systemd makes sense -- and for things that do need to scale, kubernetes makes sense.

We have a python program for simple checks and sending emails
or chat messages when a failure is detected. It might be a bit
messy now, but it works.

Hope it helps
