RootMonitor Features

Operational visibility for infrastructure where downtime is costly

RootMonitor is designed to turn fragmented monitoring signals into a clear, understandable and actionable view. Available capabilities, MVP scope and roadmap items are clearly distinguished on this page.

MVPRoadmap
Product approach

From status visibility to operational decisions

Effective monitoring is more than sending a ping and showing a green or red indicator. A useful platform must inspect service health from several perspectives, show performance changes over time, record incidents and produce alerts that technical teams can act on.

RootMonitor is being developed for server and network administrators, DevOps teams, software companies, online businesses and organizations that need a unified view of service health. Its architecture is planned around APIs, server agents, multilingual delivery and future distributed monitoring regions.

Capability areas

A comprehensive view of services, servers and networks

Every area is presented with its actual development status.

WEB
MVP

HTTP and HTTPS Monitoring

Track website and web-service availability, response codes, latency and connection health.

  • HTTP status and redirect checks
  • Response-time measurement
  • HTTPS and connection validation
  • Downtime and recovery history
API
Roadmap

API Endpoint Monitoring

Monitor critical API endpoints for availability, speed and expected responses.

  • GET and POST methods
  • Configurable headers and tokens
  • Status and response-content validation
  • Webhook integrations
TCP
MVP

Ping and TCP Port Checks

Verify host reachability, network latency and availability of critical service ports.

  • Ping and latency
  • TCP connect checks
  • Packet-loss tracking in later phases
  • Suitable for SSH, RDP, SMTP and custom services
DNS
Roadmap

DNS and SSL Certificates

Monitor domain resolution and certificate expiry to prevent avoidable service interruption.

  • Domain resolution checks
  • Selected DNS records
  • Expiry alerts
  • Issuer and certificate-chain details
KEY
Roadmap

Keyword and Content Checks

Detect hidden failures by confirming that expected content is present even when HTTP returns 200.

  • Expected keywords
  • Forbidden keywords
  • Custom error-page detection
  • Safe response-size limits
HB
Roadmap

Heartbeat and Cron Monitoring

Receive health signals from scheduled jobs, backups and recurring processes.

  • Unique heartbeat URL
  • Configurable grace periods
  • Backup and ETL workflows
  • Last successful run
SRV
Roadmap

Linux Monitoring Agent

A lightweight agent for internal server metrics without exposing administrative interfaces.

  • CPU, memory and load
  • Disk usage and I/O
  • Traffic and uptime
  • Systemd and Docker services
INC
Roadmap

Incident Management

Convert monitor state changes into structured incidents with clear timelines and ownership.

  • Start and recovery time
  • Acknowledgement and notes
  • Maintenance windows
  • Incident history and reports
ALT
MVP

Actionable Alerting

Prioritize clear, low-noise notifications instead of repetitive alerts.

  • Email alerts in the initial version
  • In-dashboard notifications
  • Duplicate-alert suppression
  • SMS, Telegram and webhooks later
PAGE
Roadmap

Public Status Pages

Communicate selected service health to customers, internal teams or product users.

  • Uptime and incident display
  • Scheduled maintenance
  • Custom branding on paid plans
  • Custom domains in later versions
REP
Roadmap

Reports and History

Analyze response-time trends, uptime percentages and outage history.

  • Daily, weekly and monthly reporting
  • Response-time charts
  • Period-based uptime calculation
  • CSV and PDF later
SEC
MVP

Security and Data Protection

Security-oriented design, especially for preventing monitoring-worker abuse.

  • TLS communications
  • Revocable dedicated tokens
  • Rate limiting and audit logs
  • SSRF and private-target controls
  • Secrets outside source code
Use cases

Who is RootMonitor designed for?

Websites and commerce

Detect outages, latency, SSL issues or checkout failures before support volume grows.

DevOps and SaaS teams

Monitor APIs, workers, cron jobs and dependent services from one operational view.

Networks and data centers

Track critical devices, links, ports and servers.

Small teams without a NOC

Receive alerts and optionally use RootNet managed services without building a 24/7 operations team.

Extensible architecture

Focused at launch, ready to scale

The initial version is planned around PostgreSQL, independent workers and an API-first design. Future scale can introduce time-series storage, regional workers and organizational deployments.

Workers→PostgreSQL
Alerts→Dashboard

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers to common questions before getting started.

Are all capabilities on this page currently active?+

No. Each capability is clearly marked as MVP or roadmap. The public software platform is still under development.

Is RootMonitor only for websites?+

No. The product architecture covers websites, APIs, servers, networks and heartbeats, although the initial release will have a narrower scope.

What data will the agent collect?+

The goal is to collect only health-related metrics such as CPU, memory, disk, network and service status, without unnecessary sensitive information.

Can private network targets be monitored?+

Cloud monitoring of private targets requires an internal agent or worker and additional security controls. It will not be enabled in the initial public release.

Will SMS and Telegram be available initially?+

The first version focuses on email and dashboard notifications. SMS, Telegram, webhooks, Slack and Teams are later roadmap items.

Does RootMonitor replace SIEM or EDR?+

No. RootMonitor focuses on infrastructure health, availability and performance. Future integrations may complement security platforms, but it is not a SIEM or EDR replacement.
