In this talk, I will describe smart and intelligent open source based techniques you can use to monitor your Linux systems in order to avoid unnecessary outages and downtime. I will show how you can get quick and actionable alerts in case of system failures.
You will learn how to use modern open source tools to receive timely notifications and information regarding your Linux systems. While email has traditionally been used to notify of IT system failures, it might not be suitable these days since there’s increased mobility. I will show how you can receive critical alerts on your mobile devices such as cellphones using XMPP Messaging. Alerts can also be sent in the form of voice notifications to smart home or office speakers.
During this talk, you will also learn how to set up monitoring processes that watch for any signs of trouble on your Linux system. For example: High and unusual CPU usage, low memory, low storage space or failing hard disks, overheating, application failures. For application failures such as web and database services, I will share smart techniques you can use to recover with as little manual interaction as possible.
Furthermore, I will outline the different open source based monitoring solutions that currently exist and how they can easily be installed and deployed on your Linux system.
