XorMon
Babice, Czech Republic
What it is
XorMon is a self-hosted, on-premises infrastructure monitoring platform for servers, storage, SAN, LAN, backup, virtualization, databases, cloud services, and containers. The maker says it natively monitors 142 enterprise technologies without middleware or custom connectors, correlating metrics across infrastructure layers in one timeline. It automatically discovers dependencies and builds an interactive topology with real-time updates. Xbot accepts natural-language questions, retrieves real-time data, and highlights critical alerts. Predictive capacity analytics address storage growth, CPU saturation, and backup-window overruns. XorMon is free, open-source software under GNU GPL v3. The free edition has no registration or time limit and includes full product capabilities, subject to per-device limits. A three-month unrestricted trial license comes with the installation package. Deployment options include Linux, VMware OVA, Hyper-V, and Docker; Linux x86/ppc is the supported hosting platform. Enterprise support adds Grafana integration, OpenTelemetry, REST API, and Topology. The company was founded in 2013 in Babice, Czech Republic.
