Versions:
Beszel-agent 0.18.7, released by developer henrygd, is the lightweight companion service for the Beszel server-monitoring ecosystem, acting as the data-collecting endpoint that quietly resides on every host whose CPU, memory, disk, network and Docker container metrics need to be tracked. Once installed, the agent streams real-time telemetry to the central Beszel hub, where administrators can view historical graphs, set threshold-based alerts and manage automatic backups through a friendly web interface that supports multi-user accounts, OAuth authentication and full API access. The software is delivered as a single static binary that requires minimal configuration, making it suitable for quickly instrumenting bare-metal servers, virtual machines, cloud instances or edge devices without altering existing workflows. Because the agent is fully container-aware, it also exposes per-container resource statistics, enabling DevOps teams to correlate system-wide performance with individual micro-services. Thirty-two successive versions have appeared since the project’s debut, iterating on security, protocol efficiency and cross-platform compatibility while keeping the core footprint small. The 0.18.7 build continues this tradition, offering silent updates, graceful restarts and tight integration with systemd or Docker Compose for hands-free deployment at scale. Beszel-agent falls squarely into the Network & Admin category and is especially useful for infrastructure owners who want a ready-to-use, self-hosted alternative to heavier monitoring suites. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources (e.g. winget), always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
