Monitoring

Watching your devices and alert states

What it's about

Monitoring is the core watching component of the FreezeProtector Cloud: rules continuously evaluate devices and readings and track the resulting alert state (an Incident) — from occurring, through acknowledgement, to resolution. Actually delivering alerts to you (email, push, …) is handled later by Notifications.

What already works today

Under "Monitoring" in the App section you'll find three sections:

  • Live — every one of your devices with a colored marker (🟢 OK, 🟡 Warning, 🔴 Critical), the same view the "Live Status Overview" widget on your Dashboard shows. Clicking a device selects it directly in the Filter widget, so you immediately see its detailed readings.
  • Rules — create your own rules (step by step: pick a device, a metric's threshold or "device offline", duration, severity, name), enable/disable or delete them.
  • Incidents — the list of your devices' incidents, with "Acknowledge" and "Resolve". A short reason is required at critical severity, optional otherwise.

Rules are automatically evaluated against your real readings once a minute.

What's coming next

  • Composite (AND/OR) conditions and device groups
  • Rule templates for faster setup
  • Maintenance windows / muting, to avoid false alarms during planned downtime
  • Rate-of-change conditions (e.g. "drops 2°C in 10 minutes")
