ZMON source code on GitHub is no longer in active development. Zalando will no longer actively review issues or merge pull-requests.

ZMON is still being used at Zalando and serves us well for many purposes. We are now deeper into our observability journey and understand better that we need other telemetry sources and tools to elevate our understanding of the systems we operate. We support the OpenTelemetry initiative and recommended others starting their journey to begin there.

If members of the community are interested in continuing developing ZMON, consider forking it. Please review the licence before you do.

ZMON Controller

ZMON Controller is the frontend UI and REST API for Zalando's open-source platform monitoring tool.

Running Locally

Please use the docker-compose that is in the compose directory of the main ZMON repository.

Make sure the provided docker-compose is up and all services are running.

$ ./run-dev.sh

Now point your browser to https://localhost:8444/

To test service worker code locally in Chrome:

/opt/google/chrome/chrome --unsafety-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure --ignore-certificate-errors

Running Unit and Database Tests

This will require Docker and automatically starts a local PostgreSQL database:

$ ./test.sh

Running E2E Tests

This will require npm

$ ./e2e-test.sh

Building the Docker Image

$ ./mvnw clean package
$ docker build -t zmon-controller .
