Honest question, what the hell is everyone monitoring in a home lab that isn't already monitored?
I have an enterprise grade NAS, but if there's any kind of disk or RAID issue it beeps the shit out of me; I call that enough for home use.
I have a Unifi router, if there is a connection issue it fails over to LTE and I get a notification on my phone.
I have a UPS, if there is a power failure, my lights shut off, my NAS and workstation shuts down via NUT, and I can restart them remotely via VPN into my router and sending WOL packets.
Basically everything is already taken care of.
What the hell else do I need for a home? When I'm away I don't exactly have 10 million users trying to access my system, let alone 1.
People care about failures with containers and scripts not uncommonly.
E.g., you run a service container that also needs Postgres, Redis, a reverse proxy, a Cloudflare Tunnel and perhaps sidecar worker containers too, like Authentik. People want to know where the problem is immediately without fucking around with 80+ containers.
