Sensu 1.x (Sensu Core) is a Ruby-based, scalable monitoring framework for composing infrastructure monitoring systems with checks, handlers, and plugins. The project reached end-of-life on December 31, 2019 and has been superseded by Sensu Go.
Use cases
- monitor servers and infrastructure health
- alert on failed service checks
- collect monitoring events and forward them to databases or incident tools
- monitor cloud platforms like AWS and Kubernetes
- replace Nagios-style check-based monitoring
When to choose
- maintaining a legacy Sensu 1.x deployment that cannot yet be migrated
- studying the architecture of the original Sensu project
When to avoid
- starting any new monitoring project - this version is end-of-life and its package repositories are gone
- you want the actively developed version - use Sensu Go instead
- you need commercial support or current integrations
