@z428 it’s useful to analyse why you want this:

  1. do you want to know whether a service is up or down; or
  2. do you want to know whether the service is available from outside

For 1, internal monitoring is probably the way to go: Prometheus+Grafana (optionally). For 2, you’d be better off with an external service with a network of global monitors to check availability of your service from different locations.

Anyway, Grafana/Prometheus has some plugins for this. Alternatively Monit can serve you well there too: mmonit.com/monit/

@z428 Another one I had some good experience with was Munin: munin-monitoring.org/

It really depends on what you are after.
