Sensu

Founded 2011

Monitor multi-cloud infrastructure and automate remediation using code-based workflows

Pricing model

Free Tier, Paid

You can use Sensu to monitor your infrastructure, applications, and multi-cloud environments through declarative configuration files. It collects metrics, events, and logs from servers, containers, and network devices, routing them to your preferred data backends. You can define monitoring checks as code, track system health automatically, and trigger automated self-healing actions when incidents occur. Sensu also aggregates alerts, consolidates telemetry data from legacy systems like Nagios or StatsD, and handles dynamic asset registration across dynamic auto-scaling cloud server environments.
