daemonwatch 0.9.4

daemonwatch is a server monitoring and data-collection daemon written in Python.

We want...

- to be notified when incidents happen (email, XMPP, ZeroMQ...)
- automatic actions to be taken (restart, rm, git pull...)
- to collect system statistics for further processing e.g. graphs
- tie into existing/third-party Python code
- play along nicely with existing deployment/configuration ecosystem (fabric/cuisine)

Overview

- monitoring DSL: declarative programming to define monitoring strategy
- wide spectrum: from data collection and incident reporting to taking automatic actions
- Small, easy to read, a single file API
- Revised BSD License
- written in Python

Use Cases

- ensure service availability: test and start/stop when problems
- collect system statistics/data, log locally and/or remotely
- alert on system/service health, take actions
