It's as complex as you make it, is linux native, is scriptable, doesn't use YAML, is native to the OS, and is free as in beer. Just like SNMP. however they'll also get logs at a central server they can drill into if needed.

Which I believe fulfills the requirements of OPs post.

Sidenote, self-hosting is absolutely overkill just as a theory and process. I often read responses to suggestions as this or that is overkill, or complicated, or non-trivial effort.

The self hosting community is a broad spectrum of users , from those with home labs on an old dying laptop to those with a full rack setup. People have different needs and interests. Some are learning infra and devops for work or to get into a new job. Some are privacy minded. Some are trying to get the most bang for their buck. Some just want to pay for a cloud hosted solution. Some just want an automated home. Some run a home business.

Edit: to the point of your valid and helpful SNMP post, most syslog servers also will ingest and report on SNMP traffic as well. The container I linked does exactly that. If they find they want to automate processes in the future they can also trigger on the syslog stream as well. But that complexity is only there if they want it. Otherwise it's just a stream they can parse and trigger an alert, just like SNMP. So OP could have an extensible solution if they want to expand. Also Grafana/Prometheus will take in syslog natively with a couple standard YAML configs if they choose that they want to look at that solution again in the future.

Edit: found better resources

https://linuxhandbook.com/syslog-guide/

https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-syslog-ng

That should be a good place to start. Syslog will do what you want.

Price in dollars is 9,820.25 and 8,943.26 in euros for reference.

Agreed this is essentially a style guide.

Absolutely, be the change you want to see in this world. Your clothes will last longer as well. Better quality fabric by the bolt and also you'll know how to tailor them if your body shape changes.

Only Apple can use that data for profit! Now the Alphabet agencies just buy that data from brokers..... I just realized how funny the parent company to Google name change is.

Calum is great. If you liked this you should check out this one on the massive overland wheeled cargo hauler that was basically a train without tracks.

That's not really the case, everything is lower quality now on average.
