Hi, I am searching for a monitoring / alert tool that warn me when a service is down (nginx, mariadb, etc.). Can monit be used with this purpose? Any other option? Thanks!
Monit is probably the easiest solution; it's a bit old-school but works well. But you will find many solutions if you google for Linux server monitoring. But unless you want to run a lot of servers or want to pay for a cloud service, then there is nothing wrong with using monit, it's simple and works.
It's even build-in out-of-the-box when deploying a new ISPC server with the autoinstaller script. Code: --monit --monit-alert-email=<your e-mail>
