Hi! i have a mixed set of containers (a few, not too many) and bare-metal services (quite a few) and i would like to monitor them.

I am using good old “monit” that monitors my network interfaces, filesystems status and traditional services (via pid files). It’s not pretty, but get the work done. It seems i cannot find a way to have it also monitor my containers. Consider that i use podman and have a strict one service, one user policy (all containers are rootless).

I also run “netdata” but i find it overwhelming, too much data, too much graphics, just too much for my needs.

I need something that:

• let me monitor service status
• let me monitor containers status
• let me restart services or containers (not mandatory, but preferred)
• has a nice web GUI
• the web gui is also mobile friendly (not mandatory, but appreciated)
• Can print some history data (not manatory, but interesting)
• Can monitor CPU usage (mandatory)
• Can monitor filesystem usage (mandatory)

I don’t care for authentication features, since it will be behind a reverse proxy with HTTPS and proxy authentication already.

I am not looking for a fancy and comples dashboard, but for something i can host on a secondary page that i open if/when i want to check stuff. Also, if the tool can be scripted or accessed via an API could be useful, so i would write some extractors to print something in a summary page in my own dashboard.
