    • Project mention: Bus ETA | /r/commandline | 2023-11-16

    Hi ! I'm currently in the process of building myself dashboards using sampler and / or WTF. I want a section with the live ETA of some buses stop from STM. I know they have an SMS option so that may be a lead but i've figured there might be a better way using iBus or something. Thanks in advance !!

  • VictoriaMetrics

    VictoriaMetrics: fast, cost-effective monitoring solution and time series database

    • Project mention: OpenTelemetry Is Too Complicated | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-03

    VictoriaMetrics CTO here.

    The referred library is the official OpenTelemetry package for reading metrics in Go language [1] - more details are available at [2].

    Note that we at VictoriaMetrics like the idea of unified observability standard like OpenTelemetry. The issue is in the current otel implementation. It is too bloated and very inefficient. This contradicts to our experience with observability cases, which need very optimized format for metrics' transfer in order to reduce costs on CPU and network traffic needed to transfer and process these metrics.

    VictoriaMetrics continues investing in OpenTelemetry by providing integration docs [3] and improving the existing functionality for otel metrics' ingestion [4].

    • Project mention: Smart-Cash project -Adding monitoring to EKS using Prometheus operator | dev.to | 2023-11-30

    The project repository for Prometheus-operator can be found here, The repo defines the CRDs and the controller. You can follow this documentation for the installation. which will require the creation of metrics exporters, node exporters, scrape configurations, etc.

  • opencost

    Cost monitoring for Kubernetes workloads and cloud costs

    • Project mention: Show HN: Cloud Costs Monitoring in Docker | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-21

    OpenCost is an open source implementation for Kubernetes cost monitoring and now cloud cost monitoring for AWS, Azure, and GCP. The project makes all of this data accessible via an API and user interface. While discussing the idea of running OpenCost on platforms besides Kubernetes we realized that with this new Cloud Costs feature there are users who want API access to their cloud billing data without needing to run on Kubernetes. I opened the Issue OpenCost without Kubernetes #2268 and as luck would have it, we had our internal Hackathon last week.

    If you're not familiar with OpenCost, it's the open source CNCF project for monitoring Kubernetes and cloud spending. It's a Golang implementation of the OpenCost Specification for monitoring Kubernetes cloud costs. It has an optional web UI and you can also run it as a Prometheus metrics exporter. The code is all at https://github.com/opencost/opencost and you can learn more about the project at https://opencost.io

  • scrutiny

    • Project mention: Can I get different aggregates with a single query? | /r/influxdb | 2023-12-05

    I've noticed a quite nice feature in Scrutiny, where older disk temp data is lower resolution than recent data. In queries it would probably look like that:

  • monitoror

    Unified monitoring wallboard — Light, ergonomic and reliable monitoring for anything.

  • opentelemetry-collector

    OpenTelemetry Collector

    • Project mention: OpenTelemetry Collector Anti-Patterns | dev.to | 2024-02-26

    But how does one monitor a Collector? The OTel Collector already emits metrics for the purposes of its own monitoring. These can then be sent to your Observability backend for monitoring.

  • mtail

    extract internal monitoring data from application logs for collection in a timeseries database

    • Project mention: i need to visualize all logs from remote dir | /r/sysadmin | 2023-05-19

    You can do that with something like mtail. Basically write expressions that match your logs and produce metrics.
