What is mon FOR LINUX?

mon Project

The mon project was created to keep an eye on service availability and send alerts for certain events. So, what exactly does that mean? Well, services are anything that can be checked by a 'monitor' program. This could be as simple as pinging a system or something more complex like checking the results of a transaction in an application.

How Alerts Work

Alerts can do various things like send emails, create tickets in ticketing systems, or even trigger resource fail-over in high-availability clusters. It’s all about making sure you know when something needs attention!

Simplicity is Key

A big goal of mon is to keep things simple and offer just the right tools for monitoring. This way, it’s scalable, easy to use, and super easy to extend for all kinds of applications. Whether you're setting it up for the first time or customizing it later on, you'll find that the learning curve is pretty gentle.

User-Friendly Setup

The installation and configuration process is straightforward. Writing monitors and alerts is simple too! You can use just about any programming language you’re comfortable with, making it easy to fit into your site’s setup.

Custom Reporting & Control

If you need customized reporting or control features, no problem! You can easily tweak those using a TCP-based protocol interface. This flexibility means you can make mon work just how you want it!
