Gyeeta Observability

Gyeeta is an Open Source (GPLv3) Infrastructure, Services and Process Level monitor (Linux only).

Key Observability Capabilities

• Monitor Hosts, Services, Processes at Global scale (scales to tens of thousands of hosts).
• Completely non-intrusive and uses a combination of eBPF and Kernel Statistics. No Application changes are needed. Gyeeta can monitor both HTTP and non-HTTP based services and can provide statistics such as Queries/sec, Response Times, Network Throughputs, Service Network Flows for any service (even proprietary or TLS encrypted) with no manual inputs or integrations.
• Query Global Aggregated Statistics from multiple servers using a single query either from Web UI or REST APIs.
• Self Learning Algorithms that can detect Anomalies, Contention or Degradation without any manual inputs.
• Advanced Cluster, Service or Process Level Alerts using a powerful Web UI or REST APIs.
• Detect Process Level CPU starvation, Virtual Memory or IO Bottlenecks.
• Monitor Kubernetes or any other Cluster orchestrators.

Components in Gyeeta

Gyeeta consists of the following components :

• Host Monitor Agent (named partha) to be installed on each of the hosts which needs to be monitored

• A Central Server (named shyama) which serves as both an Aggregating Server and an Alert Manager

• One or more Intermediate Servers (named madhava) analyzing metrics from multiple monitored hosts (partha)

• A NodeJS Webserver which handles Web UI and REST API queries

• An Alert Agent which interacts with shyama AlertManager and executes the Alert Trigger Actions (Notifications)

• One or more Postgres DBs to be used as the datastore for shyama and madhava servers
