Beszel

Beszel is a lightweight server monitoring platform that includes Docker statistics, historical data, and alert functions.

It has a friendly web interface, simple configuration, and is ready to use out of the box. It supports automatic backup, multi-user, OAuth authentication, and API access.

Features

Lightweight: Smaller and less resource-intensive than leading solutions.
Simple: Easy setup with little manual configuration required.
Docker stats: Tracks CPU, memory, and network usage history for each container.
Alerts: Configurable alerts for CPU, memory, disk, bandwidth, temperature, load average, and status.
Multi-user: Users manage their own systems. Admins can share systems across users.
OAuth / OIDC: Supports many OAuth2 providers. Password auth can be disabled.
Automatic backups: Save to and restore from disk or S3-compatible storage.

Architecture

Beszel consists of two main components: the hub and the agent.

Hub: A web application built on PocketBase that provides a dashboard for viewing and managing connected systems.
Agent: Runs on each system you want to monitor and communicates system metrics to the hub.
