Simple Observability
Generated on 24 Sep 2025 from the Simple Observability catalog page
All-in-one infrastructure monitoring platform
Servers, cron jobs, endpoints, logs, alerts, and status pages, pre-configured and live in seconds.
Simple Observability is an all-in-one infrastructure monitoring platform. Monitor your entire infrastructure from a single dashboard instead of piecing together multiple single-purpose tools or wrestling a complex enterprise platform into shape.
Everything comes fully pre-configured with predefined defaults and a clean web interface, so you can start monitoring in seconds. Configuration and alerting are handled in the browser, which means you never write a config file or connect separate systems by hand.
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, and catch outages before your users do.
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.
Status Pages
Publish a status page for your infrastructure. Add both servers and endpoints so your users and customers always know when something is down, without having to ask.
One dashboard, one subscription
Uptime checks, cron tracking, server metrics, and log collection usually mean separate accounts, separate dashboards, and separate bills. Simple Observability puts all of them behind a single dashboard and a single alert pipeline. When something breaks, you find out in one place.
Zero setup 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
- Alert rules are pre-configured, so you are covered from the first minute
- Configuration and alerting are managed through the web interface
- 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 anyone who maintains infrastructure themselves and wants complete, reliable monitoring without the setup work or the fragmented tool stack.
