WATCHLOG PRODUCT · INFRASTRUCTURE
See every host, process, and resource in your fleet.
Real-time system metrics for CPU, memory, disk, network, and processes — across every server, VM, and cloud instance, from one dashboard.
THE PROBLEM
Servers degrade silently until they fail.
Disk fills up overnight. A memory leak accumulates over days. A runaway process consumes all available CPU. Without continuous infrastructure monitoring, these degradations are invisible until they cause a production incident.
Disk fills up without warning
A database server runs out of disk. Writes fail. Your application returns 500s. All because nobody was watching disk usage.
Process CPU spikes go undetected
A zombie process is consuming 80% of CPU on prod-api-2. Your application is throttled and nobody knows why.
Fleet-level capacity is opaque
You have 40 servers. Which ones are approaching capacity? Which can take more load? Without monitoring, you do not know.
WHAT'S MONITORED
Everything Infrastructure Monitoring captures.
Real signals collected by the Watchlog Agent — available in your dashboard within 60 seconds of enabling.
System metrics at 60s
CPU, memory, disk usage, disk I/O, and network I/O collected every 60 seconds for every host.
Per-process visibility
Top processes by CPU and memory — see exactly which process is causing resource pressure.
Fleet-wide dashboards
Multi-host comparison views — rank servers by CPU, memory, or disk usage across your entire fleet.
Threshold and anomaly alerts
Alert on absolute thresholds (CPU > 90%) or anomaly detection (unusual usage for this time of day).
Detected log sources
Watchlog Agent scans for log files on each host and surfaces them for Log Monitoring ingestion.
Historical trending
Resource usage charted for the last 7, 30, or 90 days — essential for capacity planning decisions.
LIVE VIEW
Host overview — your fleet at a glance.
Every host, its resource utilization, and its health status — visible from one dashboard.
CAPABILITIES
What Infrastructure Monitoring gives you.
Complete system metrics
CPU steal, iowait, user/system split, memory buffers/cache, swap, disk read/write — every metric collected.
Process table
Per-process CPU and memory with automatic identification of resource-hogging processes.
Auto-tagging
Hosts tagged by environment, region, and role automatically — filter dashboards by production or staging.
Predictive capacity alerts
Alert when disk usage growth rate suggests full capacity in the next N days.
Service discovery
Agent detects running services and databases on each host and suggests relevant integrations.
Cloud and on-premise
Works on AWS EC2, DigitalOcean Droplets, GCP Compute, bare metal, and any Linux host.
USE CASES
How engineering teams use Infrastructure Monitoring.
Disk capacity planning
Infrastructure monitoring charts disk usage growth for every host. You see 6 months before a database server fills up and plan accordingly.
Runaway process detection
A zombie process appears in the process table consuming 78% of CPU on prod-api-3. Alert fires before the application degrades.
Fleet health ranking
Before scaling down, rank all 40 hosts by memory utilization. You find 12 running at < 20% — safe candidates for consolidation.
Memory leak escalation
Memory usage on prod-worker-1 climbs 2% per hour. Alert fires at 85%. Engineers investigate and find a leaked async job queue.
PLATFORM FIT
Infrastructure Monitoring inside the Watchlog platform.
Infrastructure Monitoring is the foundation of the Watchlog platform. Host metrics provide context for every APM trace, Log Monitoring ingests host log files, and AI Analysis uses infrastructure signals as root cause evidence.
QUICK START
Start Infrastructure Monitoring in under 2 minutes.
No YAML. No complex configuration. The Watchlog Agent handles discovery automatically.
Install the Agent
One curl command on your host. The Watchlog Agent starts immediately.
sudo apiKey="$WATCHLOG_API_KEY" server="$WATCHLOG_SERVER" MEMORY="300M" bash -c "$(curl -L https://watchlog.io/ubuntu/watchlog-script.sh)Enable Infrastructure Monitoring
Run the install command on any Linux host. The agent starts collecting system metrics immediately — no configuration required.
Data appears in 60s
CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics appear in your dashboard within 60 seconds of running the install command.
GET STARTED
Start monitoring with Infrastructure Monitoring.
Complete host visibility in under 60 seconds — on any Linux server, VM, or cloud instance.
