A simple website monitor based on the Telegraf http_response plugin.
The idea is to run Telegraf as deployment on Kubernetes for hight availability.
This project contains a Helm Chart and some other files and scripts for the best usability.
Used technonlogies:
- Docker
- Telegraf
- InfluxDB
- Grafana
Official Telegraf/http_response Docs
We created a custom Docker Image for Telegraf because we wanted some security optimizations.
You can find the Docker Image on Quay.io
