Awesome-sysadmin: A curated list of amazingly open source sysadmin resources
- PanosJee 6y agoNetdata ftw! Looking forward to the day they add logs for context
- zufallsheld 6y agoThis hasn't been updated since 2017. Might miss some newer resources.
- jsilence 6y agoMissing TimescaleDB from the list. other than that: awesome collection!
- cdolan 6y agoWe are using timescaleDB on an iot project and its amazing
- jsilence 6y agotell me more please!
- cdolan 6y agoWe have a continuous data series which represent electrical draw on a motor. This is due to resistance on the motor increasing in key scenarios, which we draw out via some proprietary algorithms/ML. Just in beta deployments we have a million datapoints, and so we switched over to timescaleDB. Will be hitting production in the next few weeks.
- jsilence 6y agoSounds like predictive maintenance...

- georgyo 6y agoThese awesome lists often seem just a bunch of links that is incomplete yet overwhelming. They are not at all "curated" they are just whatever someone makes a MR for. Here is an awesome list about awesome lists[0], often popular subjects have ten different lists. I do enjoy looking over the list and seeing how many names I recognize and reading up on ones I don't. But other than for enjoyment, I cannot see these lists as useful. For example, if you were going to setup some backups, would you use an awesome list or just search? Effectivly you will end up with the same list of software, with more mature software at the top. Adding keywords to a search refines better than clicking all the different links in an awesome list.

- toomuchtodo 6y agoThey're not perfect, but they have value. Think of them as newer versions of human curated link lists the internet had before search engines improved substantially (DMOZ [1] [2], for example). Search engines work if you know what you're looking for. These resources help provide starting points and give you some guidance that'll bootstrap you to where you can research what current state is (imho).

- aprdm 6y agoThe awesome list for Prometheus alerts was super handy and it also served as a reference for our own ones.
- rob-olmos 6y agoThanks for the pointer. I wish something like that alert list existed for error/log messages of similar software.
- photon-torpedo 6y agoAnd the backup section in this "awesome" list might be outdated, it still lists Attic which AFAIK is abandoned or rather has a successor in Borg, which is not on the list.

- aronpye 6y agoA pretty poor list tbh, doesn’t list any of the Unix / GNU/Linux built-ins for a start. Nor does it have any commentary on the software it does list, and why you might choose one over the other. I can’t fathom why it has 20K+ of stars.
- phre4k 6y agoHow would you do the commentary or reviews? In principle every software on the list should be awesome.
