What XorMon is
XorMon is a self-hosted, on-premises platform for monitoring infrastructure such as servers, storage, networks, backups, virtualization, databases, cloud and containers. The maker says it covers 142 enterprise technologies without middleware or custom connectors. Metrics from different infrastructure layers can be viewed together on a timeline, while automatic dependency discovery builds an interactive topology with real-time updates. Xbot answers natural-language queries with current data and highlights critical alerts. Predictive capacity analytics are intended to flag storage growth, CPU saturation and backup-window overruns. XorMon is free, open-source software under GNU GPL v3. Its free edition has full product capabilities but per-device limits; exact limits are on the Support page. The installation package includes an unrestricted three-month trial license. Linux, VMware OVA, Hyper-V and Docker are listed deployment options, though Linux x86/ppc is the supported hosting platform. An Enterprise support contract unlocks Grafana integration, OpenTelemetry, the REST API and Topology.
