Network monitoring shouldn't require a dozen tools and fragmented scripts. trcr replaces them all with a single, configurable system that runs 24/7.
Making Network Visibility Accessible
trcr was built by network engineers who were tired of juggling ping scripts, manual traceroutes, curl commands, and throughput test sessions across dozens of sites. We wanted one tool that could do it all continuously, ship the results to the databases we already use, and scale from a single server to a global mesh of monitoring agents.
The result is a network testing and monitoring daemon that continuously probes your infrastructure — servers, services, DNS, and network paths — and ships the results to your preferred data backend. It replaces ad-hoc scripts and fragmented tools with a single, configurable system that runs 24/7.
Built for Scale
From a single node to thousands of targets across distributed sites, trcr is designed to handle real-world network monitoring at any scale.
5 Probe Types
Ping, traceroute, HTTP/HTTPS, DNS, SSL expiry, BGP, SNMP, NTP, and native throughput testing — 14 probe types in a single binary.
4 Backends
Ship results to Elasticsearch, InfluxDB (v1/v2/v3), PostgreSQL, or stdout simultaneously.
Full Mesh
N agents automatically create N×(N-1) measurement paths with zero per-agent configuration.
1 Config File
Define all targets, agents, probes, and outputs in a single YAML file. Simple. No complexity.
Our Values
Operational Simplicity
One config file defines everything. One-shot mode for CI/CD, daemon mode for continuous monitoring. Systemd-ready with structured logging.
Reliability
Graceful shutdown ensures data is flushed on SIGTERM. Capability-based privilege model means no root required. Built for production from day one.
Flexibility
Use any combination of probe types and backends. PostgreSQL stores metrics as JSONB — adding new probe types never requires schema migrations.
Scalability
From 5 free nodes to enterprise deployments with thousands of targets across a global mesh of monitoring agents. trcr scales with your infrastructure.
