DO exposes performance metrics for hosted databases from their API. This talks about how to access them programmatically.
You'll be familiar with web bugs, the transparent images which track when someone opens an email. They work by embedding a unique URL in a page's image tag, and monitoring incoming GET requests.
Imagine doing that, but for file reads, database queries, process executions or patterns in log files. Canarytokens does all this and more, letting you implant traps in your production systems rather than setting up separate honeypots.
Canarytokens are a free, quick, painless way to help defenders discover they've been breached (by having attackers announce themselves.)
Includes web bugs, DNS hostnames, fake AWS keys, login certificates, commands, documents, API keys, and more.
Uses machine learning to identify files in misconfigured buckets across a large number of providers, including AWS, Azure, Digital Ocean, GCP, and Alibaba. Requires an account to get results but the free tier is pretty useful in itself.

You have to have a Bounty Hunter subscription or higher to use it, though.
An Android app for interfacing with WeeWX remotely. In the Android store. Requires the installation of the "Inigo" addon from the same Github repository.
Fan Control is a highly focused fan controlling software for Windows. No installation required. Low on resources, high on power.
Fan Control has extensive support for a variety of motherboards, GPUs, and other hardware, like AIOs. Say goodbye to the "silo" approach of using multiple softwares to control your different fans. Have all of them controlled by a single smart entity, and start thinking about cooling and noise as a system-wide concern. Fan Control has ALL the parameters. Response time, hysteresis, hysteresis direction, step up, step down... Fine tune to your heart's desire. Control your fan's start and stopping logic, for smooth 0 RPM operation.
The Open Hardware Monitor is a free open source software that monitors temperature sensors, fan speeds, voltages, load and clock speeds of a computer.
The CPU temperature can be monitored by reading the core temperature sensors of Intel and AMD processors. The sensors of ATI and Nvidia video cards as well as SMART hard drive temperature can be displayed. The monitored values can be displayed in the main window, in a customizable desktop gadget, or in the system tray. The free Open Hardware Monitor software runs on 32-bit and 64-bit Microsoft Windows XP / Vista / 7 / 8 / 8.1 / 10 and any x86 based Linux operating systems without installation.
To install just unpack the zip archive and run OpenHardwareMonitor.exe with Administrator rights. Without Administrator rights most hardware sensors are not accessible.

Hard Disk Sentinel is a multi-OS SSD and HDD monitoring and analysis software. Its goal is to find, test, diagnose and repair hard disk drive problems, report and display SSD and HDD health, performance degradations and failures. Hard Disk Sentinel gives complete textual description, tips and displays/reports the most comprehensive information about the hard disks and solid state disks inside the computer and in external enclosures. Many different alerts and report options are available to ensure maximum safety of your valuable data.
No need to use separate tools to verify internal hard disks, external hard disks, SSDs, hybrid disk drives (SSHD), disks in RAID arrays and Network Attached Storage drives as these are all included in a single software. In addition Hard Disk Sentinel Pro detects and displays status and SMART information about LTO tape drives and appropriate industrial (micro) SD cards and eMMC devices too.
Commercial software.
I wrote Trunk Recorder because I was curious about what my local fire station was up to and I put together the original version of OpenMHz because I figured other people might want to listen to the recordings too.
The latest version of this site makes it easy for other people running Trunk Recorder to share their recordings. I am hoping that making it easier to listen to what our local fire, police and EMS have to go through everyday will lead to a greater appreciation for all the work they do, which goes largely unseen.
The audio from each system is archived for 30 days, so you can go back and listen to events you may have missed.

Trunk Recorder is able to record the calls on trunked and conventional radio systems. It uses 1 or more Software Defined Radios (SDRs) to do this. The SDRs capture large swathes of RF and then use software to process what was received. GNU Radio is used to do this processing because it provides lots of convenient RF blocks that can be pieced together to allow for complex RF processing. The libraries from the amazing OP25 project are used for a lot of the P25 functionality. Multiple radio systems can be recorded at the same time.
Trunk Recorder currently supports the following:
- Trunked P25 & SmartNet Systems
- Conventional P25 & analog systems, where each group has a dedicated RF channel
- P25 Phase 1, P25 Phase 2 & Analog voice channels

Sniffnet is a network monitoring tool to help you easily keep track of your Internet traffic. Whether you want to gather statistics, or you need to inspect more in depth what's going on in your network, this app will get you covered. Sniffnet is a technical tool, but at the same time it strongly focuses on the overall user experience: most of the network analyzers out there are cumbersome to use, while one of Sniffnet's cornerstones is to be usable with ease by everyone.
Today, many CI services provide the ability to build applications, docker images, and many other things. Since some of these builds can take a long time to build, you may want to analyze your build data, average build time, success rate, etc. Unfortunately, few services provide a dashboard for analyzing build data. As far as I know Azure Pipeline provides a great feature called Pipeline reports, but it only shows data about builds that have been run in Azure Pipeline.
CIAnalyzer collects build data using each service API, then normalizes the data format and exports it. So you can create a dashboard that allows you to analyze build data across multiple CI services using your favorite BI tools.
Suricata IDS is a free intrusion detection/prevention system and network security monitoring engine. This is a list of awesome things that go with it.
Top, but for GPU processing on nVidia cards.
It's not that other energy monitors are bad, but they are different in that they are mostly closed systems that provide limited data and require that you use their cloud and phone app platforms. IoTaWatt collects many more metrics and stores that usage history locally. With it's integrated web-server you can manage setup, view real-time status or create detailed graphs using the browser on your computer, tablet or phone. It's your data, in your own home, and subject only to your own privacy and retention policy. You don't need the cloud to get a handle on your hot-tub, EV, solar or heat-pump.
IoTaWatt can, however, easily upload usage data to any of several third party databases with associated apps and analytic tools. For instance PVoutput is a free service that connects easily with IoTaWatt and provides world-class solar energy analytics. There is full support for uploading to influxDB. There is also an API interface for those who want to query data for their own applications or to use in spreadsheets, and there are integrations available for home automation software like Home Assistant.
Can be used to monitor just about any power system on the planet. USian 120/240VAC, European, 230 VAC single-phase, 230VAC three-phase in Australia, Germany, and Norway.
IoTaWatt measures each circuit using a passive sensor that clips around one of the insulated wires. The output of each of these current-transformers is very low-voltage and plugs into any one of IoTaWatt's 14 inputs. Sensors plug into the unit with regular phono plugs.
Fully tested and in compliance with regulatory and safety standards of North America and Europe.

If you only want to monitor power for the whole house, you only need the base kit and two induction sensors (one for each side of the split-phase). $260us
When the US-based SkyHub organisation regrettably closed down in August 2021, enthusiastic former community members wanted to keep the project and the valuable exchange within the community alive. Therefore, in October 2021, we, a group of European astronomers, software developers and hardware engineers, founded Sky360 as a non-profit NGO association, registered in Austria.
We want to provide a community platform, tools and support to all people interested in observing the skies for stars, meteors, satellites, planes, drones, weather phenomena, birds, UAPs or anything else that happens in our atmosphere and low Earth orbit. We already support the Discord channel the UAP Tracking Forum for the community of UAP trackers with over 900 members and more communities to come in the future. Together with and for the community we develop hardware and software for a 24/7 citizen sky observatory that can detect, track, identify and analyze any aerial phenomena and yet is still affordable for citizens.
Claims to be an easy-to-integrate self-hosted tool to monitor the performance of your Ruby on Rails application. This is a simple and free alternative to the New Relic APM, Datadog or other similar services. Realtime monitoring, throughput, average response time, which bits are the slowest, database queries, delayed_job monitoring, and custom events.
Known to work with Rails v4.2 and later. Requires Redis to hold the stats.
Amazingly, plugs right into Huginn using the default instructions.
A port of the original iotop to C with additional features. Acts like top but for disk I/O. Good for keeping an eye on what's bogging your disk array down.
You can add a capability so that you don't need to be root to run it: sudo setcap 'cap_net_admin+eip' /path/to/iotop
Here's my command line: iotop -o -2 -6 -8
- -o - Only show processes that are currently doing I/O.
- -2 - Don't show the PRIO column, because I don't care about that.
- -6 - Don't show the SWAPIN column, because I don't care about that.
- -8 - Don't show the graph, because I want to see more of the command on the line.
In the AUR as iotop-c.
