Apache HertzBeat Real-Time Monitoring

This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for cloudimg support services.

Overview

Apache HertzBeat is an open source, real-time monitoring and alerting system from the Apache Software Foundation. It provides agentless monitoring of servers, databases, middleware, web sites, APIs, cloud-native workloads and custom endpoints, a flexible threshold and alarm engine, and more than thirty notification channels. This image delivers HertzBeat fully installed and running, so your monitoring console is operational within minutes of launch, with no manual package installation, no JDK setup and no database wiring required.

Application Stack

HertzBeat runs as a single node using its own embedded storage: an embedded H2 database for metadata and embedded DuckDB for metric history, so there is no external database to provision. It runs as a dedicated unprivileged service account, systemd starts it on boot and restarts it on failure, and the embedded data tier lives on a dedicated data disk so it is independently resizable and separate from the operating system disk.

Secure By Default

There are NO shared default credentials. On first boot the image generates a unique administrator password AND a unique JWT signing secret for your instance, replacing the well-known upstream defaults, and writes the admin password to a file only the root user can read. The operating system is fully security-patched at build time.

Monitoring Capabilities

Monitor host and operating-system metrics, databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL and Redis, message and application middleware, HTTP/HTTPS and TLS-certificate checks, ping, port and DNS probes, Prometheus-compatible endpoints and fully custom monitors defined in YAML, alongside a threshold rule engine and notifications to email, Slack, Discord, Telegram, webhooks and many other channels.

Ready To Use

Open the web console in your browser, read the generated admin password, sign in, and add your first monitor straight away. A paired step-by-step deployment guide covers first sign in, adding a monitor and configuring alerts.
