Sensu

This role deploys a full Sensu stack, a modern, open source monitoring framework.

Features

• Deploy a full Sensu stack, including RabbitMQ, redis, and the Uchiwa dashboard
• Full support for Sensu Enterprise
• Tight integration with the Ansible inventory - deployment of monitoring checks based on inventory grouping
• Fine grained control over dynamic client configurations
• Remote plugin deployment
• Automatic generation and dynamic deployment of SSL certs for secure communication between your clients and servers
• Highly configurable

Batteries included, but not imposed

Along with deploying the Sensu Server, API and clients, this role can deploy a full stack: RabbitMQ, redis, and the Uchiwa dashboard.
However, if you want to rely on other roles/management methods to deploy/manage these services, it's nice and easy to integrate this role.
