Infrastructure Monitoring
Service and endpoint health checks for Linux hosts and web applications, with threshold-based alerting and a rolling availability history.
Projects
Tools, labs and experiments maintained inside Altair Lab. Each project starts from a real operational need — keeping a service reachable, a network predictable or a routine task automated.
Project list
10 projects
Network Diagnostics
A diagnostic toolkit for resolution paths, reachability and transport behaviour — useful when a service is "up" but users still cannot reach it.
API Integration Toolkit
A thin client layer for third-party REST interfaces: consistent timeouts, retry policies, structured errors and predictable logging.
Server Bootstrap
Repeatable first-hour setup for a fresh host: base packages, hardened SSH defaults, unattended updates, web server layout and service units.
Log Pipeline
Collection and normalisation of journald and application logs into a single searchable stream, with retention rules per service.
DNS Zone Checker
Validates zone consistency across authoritative servers, flags TTL drift and warns before delegation or record changes go live.
Backup Scheduler
Snapshot and rotation policies driven by systemd timers, with verification runs and a report of the last successful copy per dataset.
Certificate Watcher
Tracks certificate expiry across every hostname served by the edge and renews early enough that a failed renewal is still recoverable.
Status Page Generator
Builds a static availability page from stored check results — no runtime dependencies, so it stays online when the services it reports on do not.
Edge Config Templates
Reviewed web server templates covering TLS policy, compression, cache headers and HTTP/2 defaults, kept in one place instead of copied per host.
