If you are running Go you should check out Mike Perham's inspeqtor, which is Monit-like but also Go and therefore potentially simpler for dependencies. https://github.com/mperham/inspeqtor

In Monitoring Go Applications with Monit

If it was actually prompted by something, it would probably be the recent Inspeqtor[1] takedown[2][3][4] by Monit.

There's nothing wrong with Upstart and it's pretty easy to use. I've got a little wiki page with some examples here: https://github.com/mperham/inspeqtor/wiki/Upstart

In Systemd to the rescue

I just tried to get it to monitor nginx on Ubuntu, but couldn't get it working. I opened a GitHub issue. https://github.com/mperham/inspeqtor/issues/13 Anyways, it looks simple and I'm looking forward to it maturing. It will be nice to template and deploy via Ansible. I'm interested in monitoring PostgreSQL, Tomcat, etc...

The fact that there is a commercial version is proof that mperham wants and expects the project to continue sustainably. That said, the open source version provides more than Monit in a better, easier to deploy package. I think that right there is incentive enough to use it. Plus, if you want to fork it and add your own specific notification channels, here's the source: https://github.com/mperham/inspeqtor/blob/891517cc0edc6dda8d...
