Hello HackerNews !A bit of background story here.I am a Linux sysadmin/devops guy that has been maintaining freelance customer's websites for some time now.The customer base that I support are usually small online businesses (ecommerce,blogs,affiliates). Those businesses operate at a smaller scale than larger companies and often don't have a dedicated IT department to look after their production websites. So when an issue with the website occurs, the site owners are not being notified in a timely manner about this.Due to some demand from those customers and seeing an opportunity to grow the service with other customers, I've decided to launch a simple service that would monitor your website and send you alerts when something goes wrong with it.Currently, it supports most basic features you would expect from such a service:
- Latency time/Response time
- HTTP/HTTPS monitoring (is it 200 OK ?)
- Custom TCP service monitor (i.e. MySQL port, IMAP port, FTP port)
- Alerting through variety of sources including Email,Telegram,Pushover,etc.I am now at a stage where I would need more users on the platform to test and validate the idea. Due to this I am welcoming everyone who is interested to join the public beta to signup at: will later receive more details via email.Thanks and happy to hear your feedback and recommendations! :)
