  • ansible-prometheus

    Discontinued Deploy Prometheus monitoring system

  • I can recommend these Ansible roles for deployment. The only requirement is SSH access to the target hosts.

  • ansible-blackbox-exporter

    Discontinued Blackbox prober exporter

  • If you really only want ping, you can use the blackbox_exporter to provide probes.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • ansible-node-exporter

    Discontinued Provision basic metrics exporter for prometheus monitoring tool

  • But, really, what you should do is install the node_exporter on all the servers you have, and have Prometheus poll that. This way you get a "ping" via the up metric, as well as all of the CPU/memory/disk/network data.

  • prometheus

    The Prometheus monitoring system and time series database.

  • I'm not sure I really understand the question. Prometheus is a full metrics-based monitoring system. It's highly flexible in terms of what data you collect and how you alert on it.
