Monitoring a Server with the Telegram API
Some servers behind Podrover are just workers and do not run a web application, so I can’t use Pingdom and the like to monitor them. I could use some library like Monit but honestly I didn’t want to install one more thing on the server and I like to exploit push notifications when possible. I am already monitoring some behavior of my DB servers via Slack. When some key activity is performed a message is sent to a private Slack group, and I get a notification on my iPhone.
