Meerkat Monitor

Meerkat-Monitor is a simple yet powerful monitoring tool for applications and services. It’s good for local or cloud environment deployment. Supports monitoring of several services like Databases, Websites, Network Sockets, Webservices and SSH. It’s very dynamic and allows you to take advantage of monitoring through several types of tasks (like executing DB queries or remote commands).


Features a Web services API that allows easy integration with other tools (like Continuous Integration, shell scripts, testing tools) and execute tasks like add, remove or check the status of a monitoring. Runs on Linux and Windows (Mac OS soon) with a small memory footprint and it comes with an embedded web server and database. Check why this is a great tool for DevOps, Admins, Developers and Testers.


Meerkat-Monitor is not a heavy tool like Nagios, Zabbix or Cacti. This is intended for simple and dirty monitoring of applications and network services. If you’re looking for a complex distributed monitoring, “enterprise-class” and full of configurations tool, then this is not your place.
