Geneos

Geneos is ITRS Group's real-time monitoring and observability platform for trading systems, applications and infrastructure, deployed across investment banks, hedge funds, exchanges, telcos and government. It is customer-deployed software rather than a hosted API: Netprobes collect high-frequency telemetry at the edge, Gateways aggregate and rule over it, and each tier exposes its own programmable surface. The Netprobe ships a published OpenAPI 3.0 REST plug-in for pushing dataviews and streams into monitoring, an XML-RPC Instrumentation API for in-house applications to publish custom dataviews, and the Gateway exposes a JSON/Server-Sent-Events REST command service for running commands, snoozing entities, snapshotting dataviews and validating setup. ITRS also publishes first-party Go tooling (cordial, including the geneos CLI) and a Rust toolkit library on GitHub.

Geneos publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: Netprobe REST API. Tagged areas include APM, Capital Markets, Infrastructure, ITRS, and Monitoring.

Geneos’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, training material, signup flow, and 32 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/geneos: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

    7137 by default), so the base URL is the customer's own Netprobe.
