    Monitoring: Keeping an eye on everything



    Robust monitoring is vital to any infrastructure, especially one as distributed as mine. I've thought about a setup that ensures I'll always be aware of what's happening in my environment.

    Gogios: My custom alerting system



    Alerts generated by Prometheus are forwarded to Alertmanager, which I will configure to work with Gogios, a lightweight monitoring and alerting system I wrote myself. Gogios runs on one of my OpenBSD VMs. At regular intervals, Gogios scrapes the alerts generated in the k3s cluster and notifies me via Email.
