Simplifying Process Monitoring with Bash Scripting

Simplifying Process Monitoring with Bash Scripting

Tired of manually monitoring CPU usage? This simple Bash script can: - Check if a process is using too much CPU - Kill it if it crosses a set threshold

How it works: 1. Finds the process by name 2. Monitors its CPU usage 3. Automatically stops it if it exceeds limits

Use Case: Imagine an app process spiraling out of control — this script can be your safety net.

Pro Tip: Extend this by integrating it with monitoring systems like Prometheus or Datadog for proactive alerts.
