Grafana releases OnCall open source project

I don't need any of that stuff, and nor does anyone who would use this. People who need clustered high-availability stuff are paying for PagerDuty or VictorOps.

This is for tiny shops with 4 servers. And tiny shops with 4 servers don't have time to spin up a horrendous stack like this. I was excited to see this announcement until I saw all the moving pieces. No thanks!

If you only have 4 servers, make a GitHub Action (or, hell, since we're assuming one node with SQLite, a cron job on one of your 4 servers) that curls your servers every 5 minutes and sends you a text when they're down. You don't need a Lamborghini to get groceries.

And this is the on-prem version of those tools. Just because it isn't the tool you wanted doesn't mean it's not good.
