Simple Observability
Simple Observability is an all-in-one infrastructure monitoring platform for servers, cron jobs, endpoints, logs, and alerts.
Monitor your entire infrastructure from a single dashboard without having to piece together multiple monitoring tools. Simple Observability comes with sensible defaults and a clean web interface, so you can start monitoring in seconds instead of spending hours configuring a monitoring stack.
What’s included
Server Monitoring
Monitor the health and performance of your servers with:
- CPU, memory, disk, swap, and network metrics
- System and application logs
- Server uptime and heartbeat monitoring
- Disk space monitoring
- Pre-configured alert rules
Cron Monitoring
Make sure scheduled jobs actually run.
Simple Observability monitors your cron jobs and alerts you when a job fails, runs late, or does not run at all.
Endpoint Monitoring
Monitor websites, APIs, and other HTTP endpoints for availability and downtime.
Alerts
Create alerts from your infrastructure metrics and receive notifications when something needs attention. Use your existing notification channels, including email, Slack, Discord, SMS, and webhooks.
Simple by Default
Simple Observability is designed to work out of the box.
Deploy the lightweight simob agent with a single command and start monitoring immediately. Configuration and alerting are managed through the web interface, without having to maintain configuration files or manually connect separate monitoring systems.
The agent communicates outbound over HTTPS, so you do not need to open inbound firewall ports.
Get Started
Install the agent on your DigitalOcean Droplet with:
curl -fsSL https://simpleobservability.com/install.sh | sudo bash -s -- <SERVER_KEY>Once installed, the server appears in your Simple Observability dashboard and begins reporting data automatically.
Simple Observability is built for teams that want reliable infrastructure monitoring without the complexity of traditional monitoring platforms.
