@alina@girldick.gay Theres still Elastic for observability and SIEM but uhhh
Very resource intensive and complex

If you just want simple uptime monitoring with HTTP, ping, TLS Cert and some other stuff, uptime Kuma may be worth a look

Also just raw influx or Prometheus for metrics observability

What TUI or terminal tools do you have in mind for monitoring?

@alina@girldick.gay

@ChloeCrimson@transgirl.cafe i'll use grafterm

for observability i've pretty much settled on victoriametrics and victorialogs because it's lightweight, written in rust, easy to configure, performant and is compatible with prometheus exporters

grafana was just my idea for having a web based dashboard with pretty resource, IO/network, and uptime graphs

@alina@girldick.gay

@ChloeCrimson@transgirl.cafe elastic is pretty much obsolete with victorialogs tbh

@alina@girldick.gay gave the docs a quick skim and victorialogs doesn’t seem to do log parsing which makes it unfitting for a SIEM use case
But could be decent for a simple centralized logging platform

@ChloeCrimson@transgirl.cafe

@alina@girldick.gay ok, never heard of grafterm tbh 🤔

Elastic being obsolete is something I wouldn’t sign from an enterprise point of view (monitoring is part of my dayjob) but it certainly sounds like I should look at VictoriaLogs

So far I’ve used Graylog for my homelab and I’ve grown to really like it but knowing more tools is always good x3
Victoria metrics is a name I’ve stumbled over recently tho, still need to actually try that
