God is easy to setup and configure, easy to extend monitoring framework written in Ruby. Like I mentioned in one of my previous articles, keeping your server processes and tasks running should be a simple part of your deployment process and this is the power of any programming language or framework.

God’s ultimate goal is to be the simplest and most powerful monitoring application available. This monitoring framework perfect for monitoring Ruby on Rails projects runs on Linux, BSD and Darwin systems, no Windows support is planned. It’s most powerful feature for Ruby on Rails developers is the configuration – just a quick look on the sample configuration files shows that it is Ruby code.

For a web developer coding in RoR, this approach will be ‘familiar’ from the start.
