I’m still working on Simple Observability:

https://simpleobservability.com

I built it because I needed two things:

- A super easy-to-install monitoring tool that doesn’t require bash scripts or config files

- A mobile-friendly, UX-first interface where I can check everything from my phone

It’s now pretty feature complete. I can see a full picture of all the servers and VPS I run straight from my phone.

Setup is one command, no config files, and everything else happens in the UI. There’s a catalog of predefined alert rules, and creating new ones is easier than anything else I’ve used.

There’s a free tier if anyone wants to try it!

Very cool! However I couldn't get the agent running on an ARM based Oracle Linux Server 10 in OCI. I tried two different servers

level=ERROR msg="failed to fetch collection config. retrying in 5s..." error="GET /configs/ failed with status: 204"

That’s not actually a bug (maybe the message need to be more verbose). The agent is running, but it doesn’t yet know what data to collect. You’ll need to finish the setup in the UI by choosing what metrics/logs you want. Once you do that, the error will go away and the agent will start collecting data

Ah thats what I get for not readin! It's working perfectly! The only thing missing for me is ingesting the logs for my service directly from journalctl, that would be amazing
