About
BoxWatch is server monitoring that does the job of four tools at once: metrics, cron heartbeats, uptime checks, and process monitoring. One agent, one dashboard, one bill.
Most teams stitch together Datadog (or similar) for metrics, Healthchecks.io for cron, UptimeRobot for HTTP checks, and a separate supervisor for processes. BoxWatch replaces all of that.
Metrics: CPU, memory, disk, network, load, and uptime, collected by a small open-source bash agent installed with one curl command. Trend charts, side-by-side comparison views, and disk-full prediction that warns you days before a volume actually fills.
Cron heartbeats: ping a URL when a job finishes, get alerted when the ping is late or missing. Four alert types with transition-based dedup so you never get spammed.
Uptime checks: HTTP, TCP, and TLS-expiry probes executed by your own deployed BoxWatch agents.
