any tools / services that work for monitoring physically owned hardware?

borkdude 2020-04-01T16:02:48.011900Z

does honeycomb work there?

Honeycomb is (simplistically described as) a product built around visualizing and alerting on events flowing through your distributed systems (via tools like distributed tracing, etc). It can collect data from servers running anywhere. @borkdude If you’re mainly looking to monitor (hardware) metrics, you may consider https://github.com/riemann/riemann (written in Clojure), https://prometheus.io + Grafana’s UI, or Datadog for a turnkey commercial solution https://www.datadoghq.com/product/ Good comparison of classes of tools: https://www.honeycomb.io/blog/how-does-honeycomb-compare-to-metrics-log-management-and-apm-tools.
