Before you switch
Monitoring tools should be boring and reliable. Start by instrumenting one server or site, set alert thresholds conservatively, and confirm notifications actually reach you. Self-hosted analytics keeps visitor data off third-party platforms, which simplifies privacy compliance.
Like every project listed on SelfHosted, cAdvisor is developed in the open — you can read the code, follow development, and even contribute. Check the system requirements and the project’s own documentation linked on this page before installing.
