dish
A tiny, remotely configurable monitoring service for lightweight health checks of HTTP, ICMP, and TCP endpoints.
What is dish?
dish is a lightweight, one-shot monitoring service designed for simple and efficient health checks. It allows users to monitor HTTP, ICMP, and TCP endpoints using either local JSON files or remote API configurations, making it ideal for decentralized and cron-driven monitoring setups.
System administrators and DevOps engineers who need a minimal, dependency-free tool for periodic health checks without running a persistent agent. It's also suitable for developers building decentralized monitoring setups where multiple instances pull configuration from a central API.
Developers choose dish over traditional monitoring agents because it's a single binary with zero external dependencies, enabling extremely low resource usage and simple deployment. Its one-shot execution model and support for remote configuration make it uniquely suited for cron jobs and environments where a long-running service is undesirable.
