No, it includes a builtin web server to display results with charts. All web assets are included in the program binary. ### How does SpeedKetchup choose which speedtest server to use? It automatically selects a speedtest server based on latency, or you can run against a specific server. It uses HTTP for all network operations and skips speedtest servers that only serve over HTTPS. ### Where are SpeedKetchup test results stored? Results are stored in human-readable CSV files. They can optionally be written to InfluxDB or anything else that accepts its line protocol. ### Does SpeedKetchup expose metrics for external monitoring? Yes, it exposes Prometheus metrics of the last test at /metrics. The metrics include download and upload speed, idle and loaded latency, server and ISP, and test and failure counts. ### Can SpeedKetchup be used for a single test instead of continuous monitoring? Yes, it can be used for a one-off test. It can also be kept running continuously to spot changes in your internet connection. ## Alternatives - Beszel: A lightweight server monitoring hub with historical data, docker stats, and alerts. - Datadog: Datadog Agent is an on-host monitoring agent that collects metrics, logs, and traces from hosts, containers, and Kubernetes clusters and se… - HyperDX: An open source observability platform: Unify session replays, logs, traces, and errors – all without the Datadog price tag. - Kibana: Kibana is the data visualization layer for querying, analyzing, and managing data stored in Elasticsearch. - Metabase: Metabase is a simple and powerful analytics tool which lets anyone learn and make decisions from their company’s data. - Netdata: Netdata is a real-time performance and health monitoring solution that helps you visualize and understand the behavior of your systems. - OpenSearch: OpenSearch is an open-source search and observability suite for self-hosters who need scalable indexing, analysis, and visualization of log… - SigNoz: SigNoz is a self-hostable open-source observability platform that unifies logs, metrics, traces, alerts, and dashboards using OpenTelemetry… - Splunk: Splunk is a self-hosted platform for collecting, indexing, searching, and analyzing log and security data, helping homelabbers and operatio… - Tableau: Tableau helps the world’s largest organizations unleash the power of their most valuable assets: their data and their people. - apache-superset: Apache Superset is a modern data exploration and visualization platform. - chartbrew: Chartbrew is an open-source dashboard and charting platform that connects directly to databases and APIs to create visualizations, interact… --- Source: Our Local Host (https://ourlocalhost.com/app/7248/speedketchup), the self-hosted and open-source app directory.
