Inspeqtor monitors your application infrastructure. It gathers and verifies key metrics from all the moving parts in your application and alerts you when something looks wrong. It understands the application deployment workflow so it won't bother you during a deploy.

What it does:

• Monitor init.d-, systemd-, upstart-, runit- or launchd-managed services
• Monitor process memory and CPU usage
• Monitor daemon-specific metrics (e.g. redis, memcached, mysql, nginx...)
• Monitor and alert based on host CPU, load, swap and disk usage
• Alert or restart a process if a rule threshold is breached
• Alert if a process disappears or changes PID
• Signal deploy start/stop to silence alerts during deploy

What it doesn't:

• monitor or control arbitrary processes, services must be init-managed
• have any runtime dependencies at all, not even libc.

If you've used monit before, Inspeqtor will look familiar. Same high-level goals but in a modern package.

See the Inspeqtor wiki for complete documentation.

Linux 3.0+. It will run on OS X. FreeBSD is untested. It uses about 5-10MB of RAM at runtime.
