From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I’m hoping to find something that:

  • has a nice dashboard
  • is quick and simple to install
  • is very lightweight and unobtrusive
  • can send alerts via http request

send alerts via http request

On this specifically you might want to check ntfy as it's quite easy to setup and can give you notifications on pretty much any device (including iOS) via your own infrastructure all the way down to basics e.g. SSE. That mean you can subscribe to a topic, e.g. servers per physical location, alert level, etc and only get the ones you need.

Node exporter, Prometheus and grafana

Otherwise much heavier but that's also what I use.
